Supporting the Host HotelIt is very important that as a club, we support this Hotel. The facility charge for the Roberts Centre is on a sliding scale dependent on our hotel night reservations. Failure to meet our minimum sold nights may cause our facility charge to almost double. Please, please support this hotel.
We look forward to seeing everyone in Ohio! Volunteers NeededWe are asking for your assistance - in order to offer Agility, Carting, Scent Work and all of the other activities and competitions, we need volunteers for various amounts of time as tasks. You don't have to be an agility, carting, scent work, obedience or rally expert to assist with making these things run smoothly. It's a great opportunity to find out a little about something you may not have already tried. If you can hold a leash, move a traffic cone, call the next participant to the start point, you will be a great help!
Please email if you can give a few hours to one of the above mentioned activities. Our fabulous stewarding team of Myra Roth and Kathy Lake will be expertly handling the conformation duties, thanks to them in advance for always keeping us on track! Your consideration and participation will help to make the specialty efficient and enjoyable. Email your interest to: twobouvs@sbcglobal.net. ReservationsUse the Reservation Form (docx) to sign up now for grooming, catalogs, reserved seats, meals and health testing. . We will be adding a BHF Zoom presentation to the schedule at noon on Wednesday - this will be an informative presentation on the AKC DNA program lead by Dr. Claire Wiley, Director of the program. More information will be added to the bouverinational.com website in the next few days. To help you complete your reservations, here is the information on the BBQ as well as the Awards Banquet on Friday.
Grooming Spaces Grooming spaces will be assigned based on the postmark date of your envelope as has been the case in previous years - 2 spaces may be reserved at a time. See further information on the Reservation Form. And yes, we have had to increase the price for the first time in over at least a decade - unfortunately our facility costs continue to grow. Cafe We will have the cafe open for concessions for 4 hours a day, specific hours to be determined. There is a full service restaurant at the hotel as well as a quick stop coffee cart in the morning. Hospitality Suite - Monday thru Friday The Holiday Inn has given us a hospitality suite that we can use as a drop in. The club will provide snacks and soda – you are welcome to stop by and BYOB! RV BBQ – Tuesday - $7.00 This is a redo of the popular RV cookout we had in Utah. Club members will grill and serve at the RV area. Attendees will bring a chair and their beverage and enjoy the fun of a casual meal and an opportunity to visit with friends we have not seen since last year! You may also have an opportunity to Chuck A Duck! Awards Banquet Deluxe Dinner Buffet Friday - $48.00
