NEWSLETTER of the Eastern English Springer Spaniel Club

A Note from the President….

Dear Members,

I hope all is well with you and your wonderful springers. I can’t believe that fall and winter

weather are soon upon us. Now we can enjoy the colorful leave changes and beautiful snowfall as we

walk and exercise our springers.

The Supported Entries held at the Cape Cod Cluster were a great time. It was wonderful to see

new and current members competing. The table-gate was a great time with wonderful food, great

conversation and camaraderie among those who were there. Thank you to everyone for their contributions

and a special thanks to Mary Pechie for her wonderful set up of the food.

Congratulations to all winners and performance qualifiers. Your hard work and dedication to our

breed really shined through. It was wonderful to see such good sportsmanship among those who were

there.

Our biggest fundraiser is behind us. This agility trial too was a huge success. This is how we fund

our June specialties. I would like to give a big thank you to Sue Ellen and Pat Kearney for their hard work

and dedication to making this event such a successful and enjoyable time. All the exhibitors commented

on how our event is the most appreciated and liked in the region.

The next agility fundraiser for us will be on February 14 and 15, 2015, At American K-9 Country

in Amherst, NH. Please email Sue Ellen at [email protected] to let her know what day you will be

able to help.

The National is soon upon us. As you know it will be held in Missouri and I look forward to

seeing our Northeast Team represented.

Best regards,

John W. Healy, President

Agility Report

As you know, we held our annual Labor Day agility trials in No. Smithfield, RI, on August 30, August 31 and September 1, 2014. The show went off without a hitch and all the exhibitors were happy. We had folks at the show site on Friday setting up and getting courses in place for first thing on Saturday morning. On Monday afternoon, we had volunteers who stayed until late to help clean up and move equipment to the loading dock. Many EESSC members were present and most helpful. They were: Ruth Burgart, Marilou Clark, Doug Cox, Betsy Davis, Cheryl and Stephen Giampapa, Elaine Hatch, John Healy, Ed and Mi Mi Huntley, Pat Kearney, Dick Pechie, Lorena Clark Robinson, Maurene Walker, Susan Waterman, Barbara Webster and Julie Wolf. It was so nice to see so many step forward to better the Club! Thank you! Financially, we did well. We had less

entries but came away with a profit of just over $6,100. Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and talents. Without the agility trials we would not have such wonderful Specialties in June. Respectfully submitted, Sue Ellen Healy EESSC Agility Chair

Ipad Air Winner

I am so grateful to have become the lucky winner of the iPad Air 16 GB which was finally raffled off

during the EESSC Agility Trials over Labor Day weekend. This was definitely worth the wait! The club

allowed me to order the color I wanted and had it custom engraved on the back for me which I had not

expected. The retina display is beautiful and the iPad is a joy to use. Many thanks to the club for doing a

raffle to fundraise for such an excellent cause and for offering this awesome prize!

Susan Waterman

We wish to thank all who supported this IPad raffle fundraiser! The proceeds are being contributed to a

disaster relief trainer for Dogs. Several of these trailers will be located around the country and sent to

areas in need for dogs when disaster hits. We will be running this fundraising raffle again in early 2015 to

raise the 2,500.00 that we wish to contribute to this worthy effort.

Congratulations again to Susan Waterman the lucky winner of the IPad Air!!!!!!

Warm regards,

Cheryl L. Giampapa
