Library News

Do you have any VHS training tapes or

DVDs in good condition you would like

to donate to the club library? Janet is

currently working on a project to convert

club-owned VHS tapes to DVD.

Also please look to your shelves to see if

you currently have any items belonging

to Oriole (VHS tapes, DVDs, books) that

need to be returned. We are missing a

few of the older, but still quite relevant,

VHS tapes such as the Silverton Utility

tape, and some of the Terri Arnold tapes,

etc.

Thank you to Francine Bethea

volunteered to be the club’s librarian

to monitor loans and returns.

articles out, table steward to keep entries flowing in and out of the ring. Those are the main duties that are

very simple to perform.

Shout-Outs!

Lots of good things happened in the building on January 2, 2020. Thank you to Janet Gauntt for organizing this event!

- Richard Mathews, Mike McKisson, and Derek Hall all successfully tackled the problem of the

door closer on the main glass door. (We don't know if it *really* took all three of them, but it was

fixed! :D)

- Richard Mathews, Mike McKisson, Janet Gauntt, and Derek Hall were able to tidy up the loading

dock area a bit by disposing of several items that had reached end of life.

- Cindy Deubler and Mike McKisson started preparing all

of our new "Jenny" tunnel bags by applying non-slip

rubber to the bottoms in preparation for the next step of

adding sand.

- Many, many hands made light work of some

maintenance we needed to do to the turf. First the turf

cleaning machine was run. Then after that cleaning pass, Janet Gauntt, Cindy Deubler, Felicia

Wynn, Derek Hall, Rosemary Hanes, Lorinda McKisson, Mike McKisson, Terry Herman, Sue

Augat, Linda Miles, Richard Mathews, Chelsea Singer all contributed to carry in and spread

additional rubber. Broadcast spreaders were used to add another several hundred pounds of

rubber to help restore some grip that is naturally lost over time as the rubber particles become

compacted.

- After all the rubber had been added, everyone formed a line across the field and walked slowly

across picking up and debris that had not already been

removed by the turf cleaning machine.

Following a pizza (and sparkling cider) lunch, several of the

work party stayed to test out the rejuvenated turf and the

improvement in grip was quite satisfying.

Many thanks to all who helped out!

Thank you to Betty Gardner, Jean Wilkens and Jo Kendig for handling all of the Annual Awards.

Thank you to Dale Martin and Betsy Plonski for preparing the luncheon food for the Annual Party.

Deb Knowles with Anna got her L2C (NACSW Level 2 Containers) title on December 15 in Halifax PA.

She had the third-fastest time overall in the four searches, out of 24 competitors. Only 13 of the teams

passed with a 100. I am inordinately proud of Anna's accomplishment, she will be turning 10 yrs old next

wk & I sometimes wonder if I should be retiring her (Anna says, "not yet"!)

Deb Knowles with Silver earned their NACSW NW2 title in Wirtz, VA on December 28. She also

exceeded my hopes and dreams by winning 1st place in Vehicles, and we even got a Pronounced in

Vehicles, Containers, and Interiors. Most unexpected of all, she was third fastest overall out of the 31 teams

for all searches combined. Thank you Linda and Don for the Thursday fall semester classes!

country. She qualified in Time to Beat for a total of 4 out of 5 clean runs for the weekend. We were clean all

the way up to the second to last obstacle of the last run where we had an off course to the weave poles of all

obstacles! She also ended the weekend as the top Entlebucher and earned a lovely medallion sponsored by

the breed club.

Tracey Luggiero and Mouse made it on the world team on 2020 WAO USA Team by getting the most

points for the Super Win On Spot and the Biathlon/Games Win On Spot. They will be competing in
