Lambtown Demo

October 5 - October 6

RESDA is back at Lambtown doing sheepdog demonstrations this coming weekend at the Dixon Fairgrounds.  We need some trustworthy dogs and people that are willing to interact with the public.  We work our dogs on broke sheep in a fairly small covered space and speak directly to the audience.  Different training levels of dogs are welcome (but they must be polite), as the variety creates conversation points.

We like to have additional volunteers in with the audience answering questions.  Offsetting the sheepdog demonstrations are shearing demonstrations.  This approach has been well received in years past.

We also ask that if you attend on Saturday, please be prepared to set up in the morning, and if you attend on Sunday, be prepared to tear down in the afternoon

This is a fun venue with sheep and fiber related educational activities and a sheep show.  Our volunteers are treated to free admission and a free lunch of their choice from the food vendors offered at Lambtown.  In addition, the club profits nicely, which makes it possible for us to continue to keep our entry fees low for our ranch trials and offer members benefits such as the clinic scholarship..

If you are interested in volunteering please let Colleen know right away and she will get you added to the gate list.
