President Jane’s April Report

April is around the corner and the flowers and trees are in bud.  Plus love the daylight savings time as we all have more time with our pets and family.  I want to encourage everyone to attend the April meeting.  Lots of events coming up for the club.  Spring fest and the dog show will be here soon.  If you have not volunteered to help, please step up.  If you want to be trained in a position, let us know your interest.  These events are important to the club and it’s a great way to meet and get involved with your fellow club members.   If you have ideas, let them be known.  Looking forward to the meeting and bring a friend.  Reports will be given by the chair people  and the committee members  and the officers.
