For the last five or so years, that has been my painfully repetitive appeal. I am thankful that each time someone was needed, someone stepped up. This makes the President’s job so much easier. As I leave the President’s position of this club, I now acknowledge all the hard working volunteers of Southern Berkshire. From the lunch makers and raffle organizers, to gun captains, ring stewards, and event chairs, thank you all for accepting the requests to help us be successful. The life of the club will only exist as long as people help. I have learned much about the dog world and met some great people along the way. But I am not done. I was taught that life is a learning experience and continues every day. I know I can be better at what I will do in the future. Anyone who’s seen my dogs work knows that! But what I have learned I had to do more than anything is to listen. There is a lot of knowledge in those around us and I’ve listened to a lot; compliments, complaints, advice. Sorting through it all and applying the best solution is at times a dilemma. I tried to always do what’s best for the club. It is my request that the membership continue to support our new President, Officers and Board of Directors. I also highly encourage your participation. Those who have been the hardest working members get tired and overwhelmed at times. Please help out. You will get the assistance anyone else would. It is your club. It is you that makes it successful. Dave Weiss Agility Trial Let's see... SBGRC's agility trial is getting all set for June. Thank you to the club members who have stepped up to fill the committee positions and volunteered their time. We will once again be working with Canine Health Events over the weekend. This will include Friday's proceeds, two matches - Thursday and Friday evenings, the Senior/Survivor Run on Saturday morning, and the raffles over the entire weekend. We will be sending out a sign up sheet about a month in advance for members to let us know when they can come to help out. Even if you don't do agility, we would appreciate a few hours of your time over the weekend, giving those of us who will be there all three days a little break to sit down and rest. We will particularly need help for set up Thursday from 2 p.m. till 5 or so, as well as for the match Thursday evening, and even more so on Sunday afternoon for break down starting around 3:30 p.m. We can teach you anything you need to know to help out!
