Shell Community Service Fund

A huge thank you to Russell Lee from all the members of the Southern Alberta Working/Herding Club for his successful application to the Shell Community Service Fund for $1000.00.  This funding has made it possible for our club to purchaseportable agility equipment, which we will put to good use at our community event demos at the Crestview Lodge June 22nd and at Heritage Acres in September. 
We are so grateful to Shell for their support.
Here is the email Russ received from Susan giving him the good news!!!

Congratulations!

Your Community Service Fund (CSF) request for a grant of $1,000 has been approved in support of your volunteer work with the Southern Alberta Working Herding Dog Association.

The cheque will be sent to you within the next 8-10 days via interoffice mail. We ask that you present the cheque to the organization once received.

Please note: the organization will have up to six months from the date issued to deposit the cheque. After this time the cheque will be stale-dated and may not be replaceable.

Thank you for applying through the CSF and we hope this grant will help you in your endeavours to give back to your community.

We are further blessed as Laurie Milley has been able to procure, at no charge to our club,  a set of 6 pairs of custom made agility jumps worth $610.00,  donated to us by  Blairmore Precision Machining and Welding!  These jumps are collapsible and make transport a dream!   A wonderful and much appreciated surprise to us.  Thank you, Eric.  We assure you that they are already being  put to good use in our practice sessions for our community demos.

Thanks again to Russell and Laurie for their commitment to our club. 

Good Luck to everyone who is taking in the NACA show this weekend.
