Montgomery WTCA National Specialty
Dear WTCA Members:
The 2023 Welsh Terrier Club of America National Specialty will be held on Sunday, October 9, 2023, at Macungie Memorial Park, Macungie PA. If you have never attended “Montgomery” we encourage you to come join all of us. Four days of events filled with beautiful terriers and terrier enthusiasts creates a fun weekend for everyone! Showing your dog at the National Specialty is a thrill no matter if it is your first time or your 50th!
Our National Specialty provides an opportunity to see firsthand how years of planned breedings pay off! The Welsh Terrier needs your continued support to ensure that there will be National Specialties forever and ever. It’s more than just about winning, it’s a chance to showcase your own hard efforts and acknowledge the success of your fellow breeders as well. This is a weekend that provides old time club members an opportunity to extend a welcome to newer members. We want everyone to feel welcome and included in the celebration of our breed.
We are delighted to announce exciting changes to the annual auction & raffle. For the first time we will offer:
- Absentee bidding. Can’t attend the Awards Dinner? We will miss you but there is no reason why you can’t bid on some of the most sought-after auction items. Stay tuned for details on how this will work.
- Sponsored auction items. From year to year, it’s hard to predict what will be donated for auction. To ensure that there are some truly special items up for bid, we may purchase a few exceptional items that should excite the crowd.
Thank you to all the generous members who sponsored the trophies and rosettes for our National Specialty! We look forward to seeing the beautiful display from our Trophy Committee.
The packet includes information and deadlines for Conformation events, Annual Meeting, Annual Awards Dinner, Catalog Advertising, Host Hotel and Hospitality events. Performance events, which are held earlier in the week at other locations, are listed at the end of the packet.
Please, come join in the celebration and most importantly, start grooming your dogs! We look forward to seeing you in October!
