Inland Empire Collie Club
2023 Collie Club of America Regional Herding Trial
Thanks to our participants from WA, OR, MT, and NV for joining us to make this year’s CCA Herding Regionals a successful and enjoyable event. IECC members who helped at the event included Barb Flaherty, Sherry McCauley, Suzane Schwab, Linda Ward, and Ric and Eileen White. Linda was the event chair, hired judges, purchased ribbons, managed the budget, assisted the secretary, helped with course set up and transported ducks home to Spokane after the trial. Barb came all the way from Great Falls MT, and Sherry, Ric, and Eileen traveled across the state to help with scribing, running score sheets, and course set up even though they didn’t have a dog entered in the event. Suzanne ordered trophies, made two trips to transport ducks across the state to use in the trial, helped with course set up and took down courses after the trial, helped set out sheep for the Instinct Tests on Saturday and Sunday, and purchased and organized lunches for judges and workers.
We also thank our event secretary Kathy Walshon, and Jeanine Blaner, Maria Siebeck, and Sally Wells for help with course set up, checking livestock, setting sheep and ducks for the trial and Instinct test, and distributing water and refreshments for workers and exhibitors.
