In 2027 we will be celebration our 55 Years of Shows
 
Now that most of the plans are actually coming together, I can talk about the schedule of what we plan a little in detail. Our Judges are in the books and will be installed in the system. once AKC gives us the go we will make the announcement of our panel. For now, this is what plans we have in the works for LWHKC 2027 Strawberry Classic. The entry fees for the Classic had to be adjusted to $35 entries due to increases in admin costs.

REMINDER if you are interested in doing a specialty event or supported, please reach out to either Michelle Selig Milavetz or myself to get signed up.
