A Note from the Editor

Hello Everyone,

The year, as always, has flown by and here we are at the holiday season.

We weren’t able to attend the Christmas party, but we heard it was a lot of fun for all.

We hope you each have a wonderful holiday season and new year.

Dave and Janee’ Kemp, Editors

Brags

• Jackson, “Sir Jackson Stonewall,” went Group One at the Eugene Kennel Club Show over Labor Day weekend. This was his first show since March, his first show as a Veteran and his first Group One! Proud parents are Gary and Barbara Stonewall.
•  Bruce and Gayle Elgort are adding a family member to their clan. Bella will have a baby brother from Carol Jansen’s brood and he will be named Tucker. (AKC name pending)
• Carol Jansen reports that Cascadian N Fairhaven’s Sidekick, “Robin” was WD both days at Greater Clark County KC for two 3 point majors.
• The Kemp’s would like to say we took “Baker” out as a veteran for the first time at the Greater Clark County shows. We’re learning the rules ( along with the judges). On Saturday he was 1st in veterans, then BOS, then BOH.
