From Jon Klema, Chair of the Hunt Test Committee:


Fathers Day weekend.

Our annual spring hunt test lands on Fathers day weekend.

This year there was enough interest and support for two (2) full flights of dogs, or, twice the typical amount of entries.
Double the pleasure, double the fun, double the work. Two separate tests.Twice the judges, twice the birds, twice the volunteers needed to shag birds, plant birds,… twice the amount of gunners. You get the idea.

Our membership is pretty outstanding. We are an eclectic group for sure with widely different personalities, ideas, etc. We are certainly a melting pot of individuals that are unified by one thing. Our love of the American Water Spaniel. We are, if you will , a Village.

One of my late father’s favorite sayings was “sometimes it takes a Village”

That certainly sums up what I witnessed at this hunt test. Our Village rallied to pull off what I believe was just about the best run Spaniel test that I have ever attended.

Thank you to all who said yes when asked to help. There are too many names to list. I sure do love our Village and look forward to seeing you all at Nationals. (Shortcut to Photos)
