IWADV Public Education
2010 Canine Learning Experience
IWADV has done it again! A terrific booth that was appreciated by the general public and the jurying committee of the CLE. We won 2nd prize in the Booth competetion. Chairman Donna Smith has consistantly come up with innovative ways to present our dogs. The dogs and people partipating had a great time.
Canine Learning Experience - What is it?
IWADV won "Best Booth" at the CLE 2009, for the three straight years!
The IWADV has manned a booth at this event for many years. It is a long day - about a dozen club members and their dogs meet & greet the public, answer questions, give out flyers and information packets, and generally promote understanding of our breed. This is primarily a spectator event, with a large number of the general public attending.
Much work has to go into the preparation of the booth - display materials and decorations have to be worked on every year. Awards are given by Lehigh Valley KC for the best booths, emphasizing the quality of the education aspects of a clubs presentation. The room is very full - and every year clubs are turned away due to space.
