Top Dog Cow Dog Competition Oct. 27, 2012

The Top Dog Cow Dog Competition, Oct. 27th, 2012, will be held at the Tehama District Fairgrounds in Red Bluff, Ca. This will be a "first-ever" type of fundraising event to benefit the "Back to School Project", a local charity. www.backtoschoolproject.com 530-529-4074

BTS annually raises funds to take children in low-come families on a "Great Shopping Day" for school clothes, shoes, and a backpack for the first day of school. BTS recruits licensed hairstylists to give free haircuts to all school-aged children for a one day "Cuts for Kids" event.

Merle and Sandi Newton, crcdc1@gmail.com of Crystal Rose Cow Dog College, www.cowdogcollege.com 530-529-3700, of Red Bluff, as well as many others, are donating their time, talents, and resources for Top Dog Cow Dog event. 12 dogs and handlers have been secured to compete in this event for buckles, cash and other donated prizes. Also, scheduled to appear are the Glory Riders, a mounted drill team from the Fresno area.

We are offering this as a free event for kids, and we looking for event sponsors.
Our hope is to present an educational event for children of the surrounding area. We are in the process of developing our promotional materials.
We would like to make this an annual event.

At the opening ceremony, representatives of our own Young Marines will "present the colors". The Sweet Adelines, a regional ladies ensemble, will sing the National Anthem in four-part harmony.
In talking with the region leader yesterday, she said the group has yet to learn the anthem music for a performance. But our event will give the group a project for the year ! She said that the members love to sing. Our event could draw "Adeline" chapter members from the Oregon border to Sacramento. Wow !

I hope that you will join me in spreading the word about this free kid's event.
We are presently looking for business sponsors for this event, as we raise money for the Back to School Project.
