December 2014 & January 2015 Club Activites

This is what we have planned for the month of Dec.  Even if you are not a club member please feel free to join us in these fun events!

Dec. 6 - Willow Springs Christmas parade - meet at Booster field at 9 am.  Booster field in on business 60/63 on the east end of town.  The parade starts at 10.  We will be walking.  The parade route is about 0.7 miles.  Please feel free to decorate yourself and your dog in its Christmas finest. 

Dec. 7 - Informal dog training starting at 1:00 at Galloway Park in West Plains.  Let me know if you are interested in attending.  There may not be any interest with the Willow Springs Christmas parade the previous day.

Dec. 13 - West Plains Christmas parade - meet on Missouri Ave. at 1:00 pm to decorate the truck.  Line-up is at 1.  Parade starts at 4.  Recommend bringing snacks to eat while you wait.  They do pass out hot chocolate and coffee.  The parade route is about 1.6 miles.  It moves fast so you need to decide if you want to walk or ride before we get started.  It is difficult to get on and off the truck once the parade starts.  Feel free to decorate yourself and your dog.  Since Missouri Ave is very long, you can give me a call to find out exactly where we are at 417-252-0349.

Dec. 14 - Christmas dinner - 1:00 at Ryan's restaurant in West Plains. Ryan's is on Hwy 160 West from the junction of 63 and 160 near Wal-Mart.  Please let me know if you plan on attending so we can let the restaurant know about how many to expect.  If  you decide at the last minute to come it shouldn't be a problem.  We reserved for 40 people.  We will be doing a "Dirty Santa" gift exchange if you wish to participate.  Suggested gift limit is $10.  There will be a short business meeting - election of officers & proposed by-law change.

Dec. 21 - Informal dog training starting at 1:00 at Galloway Park in West Plains.  Let me know if you are interested in attending.  Folks may be to busy with Christmas so close.
