Education Events & General Meetings

CGRC, Inc. hopes all members can attend Club meetings held every other month.
Each meeting begins with an informative educational program aimed toward encouraging responsible dog ownership, ethical breeding practices, or activities for you and your Golden. This is also an opportunity to learn about current CGRC, AKC and GRCA news and events, and to let your voice be heard regarding your club’s business.
CGRC, Inc. was formed for the enjoyment and education of all members and other Golden Retriever owners. The primary benefits of becoming a member of any Golden specialty club are realized from attending club meetings and events, developing lasting friendships and sharing Golden knowledge.
Membership is more enjoyable and rewarding when you take an active part in the planning, organization and management of the Club; when you participate in various events and activities, and when you help manage club related projects.
Our general meetings and events are free and open to our club members and non-club members. We will provide club information for all new faces and hope to see you join in the future. Any meeting or event requiring RSVP, payment, or designed for club members only, will be provided to current members via our email group.
We rotate a variety of topics that will enhance your knowledge of golden retrievers and encourage a positive relationship with your dog throughout your lives together. Some of our favorite past events are Grooming Demonstrations, Veterinarian Lectures, and Introduction to new Dog Sports!

Board Meetings

Board meetings are held in-person or virtual every other month. Our board includes 8 members of CGRC, and we represent the club and our future endeavors.
Board meeting announcements will be sent via our email group and are open to all members. We encourage your participation either in-person or you can send your request to one of the board members directly.

Awards Banquet & Holiday Party

The annual meeting and holiday party are held in December to celebrate the accomplishments of the year and the new club officers are elected and officially installed.
The Awards Banquet includes a dinner where awards are presented to members and their dogs for all the hard work they put in and have earned over the last year!
