SUPPORTED ENTRY
Joan Payton reports that the gathering after the Antelope Valley
show was well attended. In addition to Joan, Nikki was there as
was Claudia Burke, Craig and Leslie Troncale, and of course, the
Magoon contingency Don, Cathie and Courtney. As usual, there
was way too much food, and everyone had a great time. Next year
(that means this year 2002) our supported entry will be changing
as the Antelope Valley show is moving. Here are the results from
the show:
Best of Breed: Jay Mar’s All That Glitters (Magoon)
Best Opposite: Ch Fair Oaks Smoking Gun, JH (Payton)
Winners Bitch: Cynister’s Afternoon Delight (Magoon)
JANUARY MEETING
There will be a general meeting on Sunday, January 6, 2002 at the home of Cathy and Don Magoon. The meeting will start promptly
at 10AM. Don is making sure there will be hot coffee. Anyone else planning
on attending the meeting, please bring something to share (bagels,
cream cheese, muffins, donuts ((MUST be Krispy Kreme’s)), or fruit).
Don’t go crazy and bring a lot…smaller portions will do well!
Cathy and Nikki will be at the Palm Springs Kennel Club Show,
however, our illustrious Vice-President Tom Collins should keep
things moving quickly. On tap for discussion is the appointment
of a Committee to nominate officers for the upcoming club year,
a report on the upcoming Field Trial, and refurbishing the club
trailer. It would also be a wonderful opportunity to pay your
club dues for the year if you haven’t already done so.
Directions to the Magoon’s home is as follows:
If you are traveling on the 91 Freeway: Take the 15 Freeway North.
Exit at Second Street. Turn right and go to Corona Avenue. Their
address is 2606 Corona Avenue, Norco.
If you are coming by way of the 60 or the 10 Freeways: Take the
15 Freeway South. Exit Second Street. Turn left and go to Corona
Avenue. Their address is 2606 Corona Avenue, Norco.
FIELD TRIAL
We had no sooner received AKC approval to our judges slate for
the upcoming Field Trial, when Cindy Leffingwell advised us that
she and Bill would be unable to judge after all. It seems that
Bill recently underwent some additional tests following his heart
surgery and the doctors advised that he must lay low and not ride
for an additional three months.
In the meantime, Don is scrambling for another couple of judges
to cover the stakes that Bill and Cindy were going to cover. After
the new judges agree to their assignment, we must again contact
AKC for their blessing. The bottom line is that the premiums for
the trial will be mailed out shortly. (I was hoping to have them
included with this issue of the Hot Wire.)
