The club tries to schedule at least six events each year in different areas of North Carolina so as many members and friends as possible can attend. In February and September the club gets together for mountain hikes. In March there is a Tailgate Picnic at the show in Raleigh, NC. May is usually the Christmas in May get-together Greensboro, NC which includes a club meeting, fun match, Chinese Auction (Dirty Santa), picnic, and a raffle. June brings us together for a club meeting and barbecue after the show in Asheville, NC. In October the Howl-oween Party & club meeting is held in Garner, NC with games and a costume contest. The club gathers at Hatteras, NC for a weekend of Beach Walking in November, and our club supports the Berner entry at the Winston-Salem, NC show in December followed by the annual meeting and election of officers.
These events are not for members only. We would love to get to know you and have you learn about us and our dogs.
