Springtime in the Foothills

Well, anybody who knows southern Alberta weather knows that things can change around here in a heartbeat.  Twice in the past two weeks, Spring has been overturned here in the Porcupines and snow has covered the crocuses.  

No worries.  The gophers and the bluebirds continue their work whether there is snow or no.
And the west wind has managed to scare most of the snow away over the past few days.  Every time I get the urge to put out the tunnels and new agility equipment, it snows.  I am starting to feel like a bad omen already.  And I've had enough of winter.  ENOUGH!

We haven't booked any SAWHDA days at the Cowley Hall because the Lions are hosting their annual pancake breakfast and garage sale this Saturday/

This is to be followed by a week of practice in the hall by the Windy Hollow Players Theatre Group as they ready themselves for their dinner theatre performance of Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow, a robust comedy of an inheritance gone wrong.  The play will take place May 10, 11, and 12th at the hall.

Beginning first week of May, SAWHDA Due South Demo teams will meet at Shadowbar at 6:30 on Tuesday evenings to practice for their summer performances, the first of which will take place at Crestview Lodge in Pincher Creek on June 15th at 11:00 a.m. 

A reminder that Lethbridge Kennel and Obedience Club has posted their premium list for the performance events in June and July.  

Right now,  Saturdays, May 25and June 1 are available for club days at Shadowbar for those who wish to meet to work a mock DD run-through, obedience or rally obedience outdoors.  Simply get in touch with us at shadowbr@telusplanet.net and let us know if you want to play.

Now go outside and rake your lawns and paint your fences.
