The club will provide meat and sodas. The rest will be pot luck, so bring a dish to share. Let Janet know that you are coming and what you will bring. (Jfric@AOL.com)

Suggestions for games are always welcome: Ideas include balancing the cookie on the nose, the hot dog retrieve, the t-shirt relay, musical chairs (dog will need a stay), raw egg retrieve, limbo, bobbing for tennis balls. Special games for the veterans and for the puppies.

A few reminders:

Park by the trailer. We will have the area marked off.

Bring your own chairs or blankets to sit on.

The trailer will be open..think no port-a-pot:)

Please, no formal field training although you are welcome to bring your dogs and let them swim, play fetch, just walk, and of course play the games.
