We also need volunteers for stewards for the Sept Trials in Obedience and Rally up at the Farmington Shows. Remember, you do not need to have experience. You will be trained and learn a lot! It isn’t hard work, taking names, giving numbers, etc. Please contact Donna Smith at karyonwesties@q.com or Penny Morrison at pennlcm@yahoo.com if you want more information or to volunteer. Remember, the club CAN’T continue to put on theses trials without our members help and support! Thank you!

We are looking for trophy sponsors for our show in September. A trophy sponsor-ship is $10 a trophy. In order to sponsor a trophy, email Catherine-at mcbride.catherine@gmail.comletting her know what event and days you would like to sponsor.

If you would like to sponsor the event for the entire weekend, it would be $30. Events will be filled on a first come/first serve basis; however, if your preferred event is not available, she will reach out to identify which open event you would like to sponsor.

Checks for Trophy Sponsorship should be made out to "GSLDTC" and can be mailed to Catherine Beattie at 1749 Lyndi Lane Saratoga Springs, UT 84045.
