2020 August PWDCGC Water Trial:  Due to the concerns regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, and the uncertainty of RecPlex availability in August, the Water Committee has regretfully decided to cancel this year's water trial. However, weekly Pond Puppy Training is still ongoing and trialing possibilities are still available, at this time, with our neighboring regional clubs. 
We hope to resume our trial schedule in 2021. The water committee is happy to answer any questions members may have.
