2006 Vizsla Calendar Contest
We had a record number of beautiful Vizsla photograph entries artfully displayed outside the Club House with voting by tickets under the Canpy.

Pheasant Egg Race
It delighted kids and adults alike as contestants watched with great anticipation to see whose "pheasant egg" would be carried by the water currents to the creek "goal line" first.

Pigeon Drop Contest
No one drew the spot the pigeon "dropped on" so the proceeds went to benefit the club.
