Potomac Valley Golden Retriever Club

We are going to have an annual awards banquet again! On Sunday, April 30th, we'll gather together to celebrate all the wonderful accomplishments of our Golden Retrievers in 2022. We'll get to see and visit with old and new faces that aren't constrained to a tiny square on a computer or phone screen! We'll be (mostly) back to normal again, but doing so in an environment that will promote lots of circulating fresh air. The banquet will be held at the farm of Molly McEvoy in Woodbine, MD.

You must register in order to attend. The cost for this year's banquet is $45.00 per person. You must register online via the PVGRC website, but you do not need to log into your account to do so. (If you do log in, much of your information will be pre-filled for you, though!) You have a choice of payment methods. You can pay using a major credit card via PayPal by selecting that option on the sign-up form. (Note that you do NOT need to have a PayPal account to use their credit card payment service.) Or you can elect to bring a check with you to the banquet. If you are paying by check, make your check out to PVGRC. Click here to sign up.

There is a hard deadline for signing up - you must sign up no later than 10:00 p.m. on Friday April 14th. This is required in order to place our final order with the caterers.

If you have questions about the banquet, please contact Molly McEvoy at vice-president@pvgrc.org.

The March/April 2023 edition of the PVGRC Newsletter is now available for download. You can find it under Newsletters on the Members-Only menu. (You must be logged into your account on PVGRC.ORG to see the full Members-Only menu.)

We have extended the deadline for news, brags, photos, columns and stories for the March/April 2023 PVGRC Newsletter from March 1st to March 9th. This will give all of you time to submit all of the great accomplishments of your dogs at the March 3rd PVGRC Annual Specialty (and the subsequent Maryland Sporting Dog shows). So  get those achievements in as soon as possible! Please send them to Alyssia Black at newsletter@pvgrc.org.

The annual banquet is back! It will be held on April 30th at the home of Molly McEvoy in Woodbine, MD. We want to have a new slide show for that event, but we need your help! It's been two years since we put together a slide show from everyone's dog pictures, during which hopefully you spent more time around your pups - and took lots of pictures of them. So send us your favorites to share! Candid pictures are best, rather than win photos. They may be funny, exciting, cute, sad, beautiful, or heart-warming. They don't have to be professional quality - just reasonably sharp. We can do some editing on them if need be. The pictures will make for great conversation items at the banquet. Send your photos by email to photos@pvgrc.org. Send pictures in .jpg format. Send as many as you like. Thanks!

The next field training day is being held on April 2nd at Rover's Content, Cheltenham, MD. Registration is now open, and will close at 7:00 p.m. on March 30th. To register, click the button below:
