2003 Veterans' Day
Every year, during the month of November, WRGRC celebrates Veterans' Day by having a terrific event with all golden retriever veterans. This means we bring our 8+ year-old "puppies" out to play with them, give them rosettes, and play games. It is a great time as can be seen by these pictures taken at our 2003 Veterans' Day celebration.
2003 GRCA National Specialty
13-21 Sept 2003
Mentor, OH
There is a GRCA national specialty every year somewhere in the country. The location of it cycles throughout the different regions (eastern region, central region, then western region). In 2003, the national specialty was held in the central region by Cuyahoga Valley Golden Retriever Club in our neighbor to the west, Ohio. Here are some pictures taken from that great event.
