"SPRING 2023"
Saturday’s CVVC Spring Hunt test is now a wrap. We had beautiful weather, lots of new faces and a full schedule. It was a very successful day.
Judging Panel
We would like to thank our Judging Panel, including Valerie Mattie-Reis, who had a blowout coming through Springfield, managed to get to safety, and she ubered her way to the test so she could complete her judging assignment. Girl Power!!!
We couldn’t have done any of it without the support of our club members and wonderful volunteers.
We’d like to thank the following people.
Line Marshalls extraordinaire
Kim Karkut, Susan Potocik, Sandy Jacobus-
who got people to the line efficiently and kept things running smoothly.
Gunners
Chris Leitkowski, Mike Ernest and Cory Roy with their shooting expertise for our dogs.
Photos
Ron Karkut who took great photos of teams that earned legs or titles.
Raffle/ Course Management
Rebecca Rowley, woman of many talents, who took charge of our raffle and managed to surpass our goal, helped set courses and seed courses them at 6:30 am to get the first brace off the line at 7:07, and filled in wherever I needed her due to me not being as mobile as I had hoped.
Our Bird Planters
which is one of the most important jobs-- of the hunt test, Tristan Boscardin, Alan Mizak, John Morris: and newcomer Shane Podmore. Shane deserves a huge shot out for his extraordinary effort. He planted nonstop from 6:30 am until 3pm and help clean out the bird-room and anything else I asked.
My Right Hand Girls
Finally, I couldn’t do any of it without the help of these two women, Ann Moses and Linda Morris. The amount of work they do behind the scenes is ridiculous.
Get ready to do it all again November 25th with the Brittany club on the 26th.
Thank You Marisa Fowler, Hunt Test Chair
