From Dwayne Padgett:
Avery and the Charleston Retriever Club will be conducting a free training day at Diamond E Farm in Mullins, South Carolina, on October 2nd. Hunt test scenarios for all levels will be covered and a technical pond will be available for more advanced work. Any dogs just entering the swim by phase or needing a refresher in this area will have ample opportunity in another pond reserved for this type of training. The seminar will start promptly at 8 A.M. and will end when darkness falls that day. Avery Sporting Dog will be providing lunch so please bring your dog and join us in a great time.

Also, Diamond E Farm will be having a drawing for 2 people, each with a guest, to come back for a dove hunt.
