If you plan to attend, please RSVP Pat O’Brien by Wednesday May 26, 2010 Co-Hosts: Tammy & Dave Kelly Volunteers needed: help with setup/cleanup, man grills and assist with the races. Guests & Westies are always welcome! Westies must be under control, i.e. on a leash, or in a crate or x-pen. Please bring newspaper, tarp, etc. to put under pens. There will be a designated "exercise/call of nature" area outside, complete with a pooper scooper. Please come and bring your appetite and your Westies. Meet our Society members (we want to meet you, too) and have some great casual fun. WESTIE OWNERS' RESPONSIBILITIES: It is the responsibility of each owner not to place other members or guests, or other Westies, in harm's way. Therefore, a Westie that has a tendency to be overly excitable to a point where it has the potential to bite or fight SHALL NOT BE ALLOWED TO RACE. This rule will be rigidly enforced *DIRECTIONS: From Rt. 91: Exit 10 (Rt. 40) to end, right onto Route 10 (Whitney Avenue.)

Our Society functions, which consist of a membership meeting and a fun or educational program, are held during the months of February, April, June, October, and December. We'll be happy to add your name to our events mailing list. Please notify Lee Trudeau, Corresponding Secretary, of your interest in the Society. If you do not have a Westie yet, these activities offer excellent opportunities to observe the dogs in action. Guests will receive one complimentary copy of our newsletter, The Bagpiper, when they attend the first function. Thereafter, they will receive a meeting/events notice for the following three functions. These functions are also listed on our website. Click here to see photos from previous WHWTSOC Meetings |
