Conformation Classes January 27th– March 3rd
With great optimism that we will have spring and summer shows, Anne Schmidt will offer conformation classes under the following guidelines (Dates are January 27 – March 3):
- I will need an updated COVID waiver from every attendee. Please do not come if you have ANY illness at all, even the sniffles. WDC COVID-19 Waiver
- You must follow the WDC Building rules of wearing a properly fitting mask at all times when in the building. If you do not wear your mask correctly, you will receive 2 warnings, after the 2nd you will be asked not to come back to class. It does help to wear a mask bracket so you can breathe better when moving with your dog – look it up on Amazon.
- Sign up is required on WeJoinIn. Please make sure to provide your email address so I can contact you if we have any cancellations (weather, virus, etc. )
