***New Candlelight Ceremony***
The Specialty Committee will be introducing a new ceremony at the Annual Dinner at this year’s specialty.  As our club has matured so have our PONs and many of us are beginning to lose them to old age and disease.  The committee wanted to recognize those PONs that have gone to the rainbow bridge and decided to conduct a candle lighting ceremony in their honor at the club’s annual dinner.  A memorial will be read and a candle lit in memory of each PON that has passed.  If anyone has lost a PON that they would like to honor, please submit the following information via email to Chris Gibson
(chrisgibs99@cox.net)

Dog’s Registered name
Dog’s Call name
Date of Birth/Date of Death
Owner’s name

Candles for the ceremony have been generously donated by Margaret Maciagiewicz and Harold Robbins
