The regional shows are coming up fast. On May 20th, 2022 we will be having our 2 Regional Specialties. The OVIRWSC will be putting on as well our lunch for ALL IRWS exhibitors & family on Friday May 20th. Tracy Waite once again has volunteered to work putting this on. Also in the evening prior to our Annual Meeting we will be putting on a Potluck Dinner. The OVIRWSC will supply the main dish. This will be a potluck and we ask that you just bring a dish.

Please if you plan to attend the lunch or dinner, Michael Lamp is the person in charge of this. To make sure we have enough for all to enjoy PLEASE let Michael know how many plan to attend. You can send him an email at [email protected].

Also remember we have our annual auction to help support our shows each year. If anyone has anything they like to donate please bring with you to the shows. Our money we make off the raffle each year helps us pay for our insurance for the club, regional specialties, lunch and dinner at shows, ribbons, prizes and any other misc. things that come up.

Thanks

Updates for the National and Regional specialties.

We will have designated grooming space for IRWS at the far end of the main building directly across from ring 5 (IRWS will be in ring 5 for all four shows). Spaces will not be marked but exhibitors need to set up 6 feet apart from other exhibitors. If you have multiple dogs, they can all be set up together but please stay 6 feet from the next exhibitor. We have borrowed a booster bath which will be right outside the door near our grooming area. Please bring your favorite shampoo/conditioner. No forced air dryers are allowed inside the building.

We have requested 10am ring times for the Friday AM show and Saturday and Sunday. Friday pm show will be around 2 pm.

Friday evening the OVIRWSC will be celebrating our 10th anniversary with a cake for all exhibitors. Time to be determined but as soon after BIS as possible.

To continue our anniversary celebration, the OVIRWSC will be furnishing a roasted pig for the IRWSAA annual dinner on Saturday evening. There will be no cost to anyone but we ask that bring a dish to share. Tentative plans are for the dinner to be under the canopy on the side of the main building. If rain we will move inside. Tentative time is 5:00 pm depending on the completion of BIS.

There will be raffles/silent auctions for both the IRWSAA and the OVIRWSC . We have some great items already and will accept donations at the show.

COVID waivers will be sent by MBF with show schedules. Please fill out a form for each person attending with you . These will be collected at the gate before entering the fairgrounds. Each person will be issued a wristband which MUST be worn the entire weekend. Extra forms will be available at the gate.

Masks will be required inside the buildings but outside in open areas is optional as long as social distancing is observed.

Lastly, this has been a nightmare year to plan a show (or anything else) so please thank the show committee and the all breed clubs for all their hard work. We have tried to put on the best shows we can while considering local and state regulations knowing at any minute we could have to cancel or drastically alter our plans. If you have questions or concerns please see a committee member and we will help. We are considering these shows as a gathering of the clan after a long absence so please let’s just have a good time and celebrate our getting together again! Be kind, considerate and most of all, have fun!

Any questions before the show, email or call me.. [email protected] or 740-236-9400 . Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Michael Lamp
IRWSAA Show Chair
