Southern Chow Chow Club
Julia Woodcock, Secretary
As the New Year begins to thaw, we at The Southern Chow Chow Club, Inc look forward to seeing
the flowers in bloom and all the chows in glorious coat. As we’ve watched social media we have seen
that many of our fellow chowists have been blessed with babies in recent months. We are thrilled to
know that 2019 will see a nice number of chows in the ring. The members of The Southern Chow
Chow Club, Inc. will once again hold their Spring Specialty and Supported Entry in conjunction
with the Celtic Classic in York, PA. This indoor circuit runs from March 13th through March 17th.
The Specialty judge will be Robin Stansell and Supported Entry judge is Cindy Stansell. Michael
Leonzio will judge puppy and veteran sweepstakes. Saturday afternoon a luncheon will be provided
and then we will support the breed winner in the group. Saturday evening dessert, fun and games
will be on the agenda. These shows are a good lead up to the National and always draw good
entries. Our Spring raffle will be drawn on St. Patrick’s Day. Will the luck of the Irish be with you?
Please come join us for some SOUTHERN hospitality.

The RMCCC members congratulate the other regional Chow Chow Clubs on their very successful
and fun Specialties this past year and are already brainstorming and working on our 2019 back-to-
back Specialty shows to be held on Friday, September 6 in Greeley Colorado at the beautiful Island
Grove Park and Exhibit Center. The specialties are followed by the Evergreen KC all-breed shows
at the same location on Saturday and Sunday. Our judges this year, pending AKC approval, are
breeder judge Ms. Joanne Schullier (Claymont Chows) from Missouri for one specialty and Mr.
Tom Stanfield (CO) the other. Our sweepstakes judge will be Mr. Wayne Eyster (TX).
This show venue is consistently named the best show site in Colorado by exhibitors, judges and
handlers. The acres of grass and trees, large air-conditioned buildings, RV parking with hook-ups
and an assortment of dog-friendly hotels make this an ideal place to enjoy a long weekend of dog
shows. There are also some great new hotels and restaurants in Greeley.
We are always trying to think of extra features that will attract chow fanciers from out of the area
to come and join us. If you are considering coming to our shows, please contact show chairman
Pat Foose, President Milli Sudduth, or me for help in planning your stay. We are always happy to
help you with any reservations, plans, maps, or any questions you may have. Our goal is to make
sure that everyone has such a great time that they will join us every year for great Rocky Mountain
hospitality and breathtaking beauty of the Rockies. Cheyenne and Laramie Wyoming are within
easy driving distance if you want to do a little old west sightseeing, Denver is a great shopping
and restaurant town and there is nothing prettier that a trip up to Estes Park to see the elk and
mountain lakes!
Please plan to come and enjoy your visit!
