The first couple of hours will enable us to fulfill one of our educational
requirements by Meeting and Greeting the public and
providing knowledge about the breed. After that we will have a separate area
to crate our Saints, hold a meeting and thaw out with hot beverages and
snacks. Wachusett Mountain is setting a portion of the deck aside for us, will
clear off and will also
enclose it with bamboo fencing. We will need a few volunteers to take turns
watching the enclosure to make sure well meaning visitors don’t come in
unsupervised contact with the dogs. Crating in this area is mandatory!
Our intention is to have a new sled available for members to learn how to use.
Tom Pollard and Tony Genovese are working feverously to make this happen. The
facility is looking to provide parking space in the upper lot, close to the
lodge, to make it convenient for our members. This will also make it more
convenient for us to get the crates out to the reserved decking.
More news will be sent to all members prior to the event date with any last
minute details and updated here.
Please feel free to contact Bill or Laura Gordon with any questions you may
have. They can be
