2006 USA Helper Seminar
& Classification

The GSWDA put on a great event. As Nia put it, they raised the bar for Regional Helper Seminars. Great job guys!

Thanks to Patty Burke, Kurt, Suzanne and Zach for providing dogs and assistance. Without you guys and your dogs, it would have been a lot harder to do the seminar.

Congratulations to Brandon, Suzanne and Craig for achieving the "basic" USA Helper Classification. And to Kurt and Zach for moving up to the "Club" level classification.

Below are some other interesting stats from the helper seminar for you too! It was my last helper seminar and you guys made it a memorable one. Thank you.
