Bachelor Kennel Club is a non-profit organization established in 1960 here in Central Oregon. We have a membership of approximately 60 people. We are a member club of The American Kennel Club. Our main purpose is the advancement of purebred dogs, but we are very active in the community as well. Our main activity is the 3 day all -Breed Dog Show Obedience, Agility and Rally Trial that is held at the Deschutes County Fairgrounds the latter part of June or early July, this an annual event, the first one was held in 1982 at the old Fairgrounds we are now in our 26th year. Other MBKC activities include educational programs promoting responsible dog ownership and care. MBKC sponsors two Eye Clinics every year allowing Central Oregon dog owners the opportunity to have their pet's eyes examined by a board certified Veterinary Optometrist. We offer two AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluation Tests a year. Over the years Mt.

We have many great ideas, and people within MT. Bachelor Kennel Club with the skills and knowledge to follow through with the ideas and make this a memorable event that hopefully will contribute much-needed funds to the Redmond Shelter. I have enclosed a separate sheet describing some of the activities we are anticipating (Very Rough Draft) 3. Our time line would be set-up time on Saturday, Dec. 6th with the use of Fairgrounds tables and chairs and all day on Sunday, Dec 7th for the actual event. 4.
