ABTC National Specialty May 9 – 15, 2004 |

| Welcome to the ABTC 2004 Specialty web site.
Many members have been eager for the return to Lake Lawn Resort. There will be some relocation of event venues on site to improve the conditions. We are endeavoring to maximize member involvement by having performance events at good venues as reasonably close as possible to the hotel.
We are seeking out vendors that many members have not had the opportunity to see at shows in their local area. The Great Hall will again be the site for vendors.
Please be aware that National Specialty shirt sales are pre-order only. There are no plans for sales at the National. Do your Christmas shopping early!
Following the publication of trophy donation information in the Oct/Nov TNT, the information will be on the web site. Additional details will be added for the various events as time passes.
The 2004 National is on sound financial footing due to the yeoman efforts of a small core of the membership from western and central Wisconsin and from Minnesota. This group put on agility trials over the past three years and deserve everyone’s gratitude.
As the dates approach, the excitement will build for a return to Lake Lawn for another memorable National Specialty. It’s the perfect backdrop to renew old friendships, make new friends, and appreciate the beauty, versatility and athleticism of the dogs we love so much. --Show Chairman, |
