Approve a change of venue for the 2021 Working Dog Championships from Turner Junction to St. Louis Schutzhund Association

EB Ballot #03-21

EB Motion #03-21 – Approve a change of venue for the 2021 Working Dog Championships from Turner Junction to St. Louis Schutzhund Association. 

Motion by Jim Alloway, Treasurer, and seconded by Michele Clubb, Secretary, to approve St. Louis Schutzhund Association as the co-host of the 2021 USCA Working Dog Championships.

Background:  Turner Junction Working Dog Club was previously selected to co-host the 2021 WDC however, the state of Illinois has banned gatherings of more than 50 people until June. While this may be lifted, we feel it is best to relocate to a state that does not have such restrictions. Turner Junction Working Dog Club has been nothing short of phenomenal and was eager to host the event in 2021 and in no way should be held responsible in any way for this proposed change. They look forward to being able to host and help in the near future. St. Louis Schutzhund Association has access to facilities and ample sod tracking. They have experience with hosting national events and will do a fantastic job.

The proposed dates are April 29th through May 2nd.
