Schuylkill Valley GSP Club

The Schuylkill Valley German Shorthaired Pointer Club supports conformation showing by holding at least one specialty show annually.

Our club’s annual Specialty Show will be on Sunday, March 16, 2025 at the York County Fairgrounds, York, PA. This will be a part of the Celtic Cluster shows.

Our Sweepstakes Judge is Ms. Alyssa Siar
Our Specialty Judge is Mr. Richard Powell

We will offer breakfast treats that morning ringside.
Mason Dixon GSP Club is holding a Specialty and sweepstakes on Friday 3/14 and Saturday 3/15. It should be a great weekend of shows!
Entries are through Jim Rau Dog Shows and will close February 26th noon.

Here is a link to the Premium List

Help is Needed on March 16, 2025 at the Show!

We need help from our club members at the show!

NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE NECESSARY, NO KNOWLEDGE OF DOG SHOWS NEEDED:

6:30AM – Help Jaimie set-up Trophies/Rosettes – 1 person (cover with table cloths, hang banners and organize prizes). If can stay, help Jaimie tear down these tables quickly at the end so the next clubs coming in can set-up.
6:30AM – Set-up Breakfast Items and go to Dunkin (down street) for coffee – 1-2 people. If these people could keep the table clean/refreshed throughout the morning and stay to clean the food up quickly at the conclusion of the show, that would be ideal
6:30AM – Set-up Raffle Items Tables – 2 -3 people. Put down table covers, put out and accept raffle items as they are dropped off. Create paper bags for raffle tickets to go in. Sell raffle tickets throughout the show. Do the drawing of raffle tickets at the conclusion of Best of Breed. Clean up tables at conclusion quickly so the next club coming in can set-up. (Jaimie will bring all supplies needed – cash, cashbox, raffle tickets, tape, paperbags, table covers, markers, pens)
8AM – Mark the show catalog with the placings of the dogs in the ring – 1 person
Shopper and/or Bakers – If anyone would be interested in shopping for the breakfast items (or cooking breakfast items) and bringing them that morning (or getting to Jaimie by day before) that would also be much appreciated! Last year we did baked mini muffins, egg bites, cookies, Nutrigrain bars, mini water bottles, and coffee. Jaimie can provide more details.

Please let Jaimie Reinhard (Show Chair) know as soon as possible if you are available by via email or phone (shipeJL@gmail.com or 484-529-8302)

Exact time of show won’t be known until the week before the show. It will most likely be 8am. So we will need help starting EARLY 6:30am! Should be done before noon with clean-up.

Raffle Baskets / Items Needed

We need raffle basket/item donations to hold a raffle the day of the show! This helps to cover the cost of the trophies, judges gifts, supplies and hospitality food. We received generous sponsorships to help cover some of the trophy costs.
We try to have at least 20 items and the raffle usually brings in $500-800!

Thank You to our Trophy Sponsors!.
