Peach Blossom Cluster
Entries have closed. The judging program is not ready yet, but breed counts are now available at Onofrio.com. Good luck to all our members competing. Although conformation, obedience, rally, and agility are all closed, most of the other events may be able to accept entries, some even on day of, so there is still time to get in on the fun. And, if you are not ready to compete, and still want to get in on the excitement of “PERRY”, there are plenty of volunteer opportunities. Email Cluster Chair, Mary Ellen Macke, at maryellenmacke@gmail.com to volunteer.

 

Speaking of fun, we have a very special opportunity this year! Have you ever wanted to drive a “surrey with the fringe on top”? Well, we don’t have a surrey, but we do have the Peach Blossom Cluster Tram with a fringe on top! New this year, we will have a tram circling the GNFA grounds, but we need drivers. Please contact Mary Ellen Macke, maryellenmacke@gmail.com, if you would like to volunteer for one or more 2 hour time slots.
