We have started a new Samoyed club for southern Virginia and North Carolina. The club is called the Coastal Blue Ridge Samoyed Club and will meet every other month in various cities to allow all members to attend at least yearly at a city not too far from them. These cities include:

• Williamsburg, Virginia
• Charlottesville, Virginia
• Lynchburg, Virginia
• Virginia Beach, Virginia
• Fredericksburg, Virginia
• Raleigh, North Carolina.

Club officers are:

• President/Treasurer: Mrs. Danielle Ellis - lilmisd@comcast.net
• Vice-President: Mr. Jan Fletcher - jsj.fletcher@cox.net
• Secretary: Mrs. Cherie Smith - CherieSmith@hotmail.com
• Board: Mr. Barry Ellis

Other Club Info:

Dues will be $25 per family or individual or $15 for junior members under 18 years of age.

You are welcome to join by sending dues by check to the treasurer, Danielle Ellis at 115 Chriswood Lane, Stafford, VA 22556 or to attend a meeting and join then, if you like what you see and hear. We plan to have a fun event or educational presentation at each club meeting. We also are planning a handling seminar and fun match that hopefully will be held in 2011.

Feel free to ask questions of any of the board members. We hope you will join us and we look forward to seeing you at as many meetings as you can attend.
