Updates March 17, 2020

The USRVDTC board has continued to monitor local and national reports on the evolving impact of COVID-19, and keeping everyone’s best interest in mind have made the following decisions.

We will be cancelling the remainder of all current classes (3/18 and 3/25). Your instructor should be contacting if you are currently enrolled.

At this point we plan to hold our next session of classes beginning in April as scheduled as we will be outside with plenty of room to keep our distance from each other.

We are cancelling our April Agility Trial in order to keep everyone safe.

We will not meet on April 2, 2020. Our next club meeting will be Thursday, April 16, 2020 at 7:00 p.m. We will be meeting at The Zone.

Please watch your email for additional updates and stay safe out there.

Original Statement:

We on the board of USRVDTC are committed to keeping the safety of our members and the public first.

We are closely monitoring local and national reports on the evolving impact of COVID-19, and will continue to make decisions with everyone’s best interest in mind.

At this time we will continue with Sunday practices for those that have paid as we normally have only 7 or 8 participants.  We will have hand sanitizer at the door and encourage all to use it.  If you are uncomfortable or not feeling well, please don’t attend.

We will be cancelling all classes on Wednesday, March 18, 2020. At this time we plan to resume classes on Wednesday, March 25, 2020 and move our CGC Testing to April 1, 2020.

We will postpone our March USRVDTC Meeting until April 2, 2020 at 7:00 p.m. The location is to be determined.

We are closely monitoring the situation and will make a final decision about our Agility Trial before the April 2nd meeting.  At this time, we are still planning to go forward but that is subject to change.

When we resume classes and meetings we will have hand sanitizer available and encourage everyone to use it.

Please watch your email for additional updates and stay safe out there.
