Connecticut River Working Group CRC Supported Shows, March 2022
For the first time in two years, we were finally able to come together again for the Connecticut River Working Group (CRWG) weekend of shows located in Springfield, MA. This wonderful set of shows is held in conjunction with the 2 all-breed shows hosted by the First Governor’s Footguard Association. The show weekend never leaves for a dull moment in New England during the season of the frozen tundra. CRWG is a group of shows where the working breeds come together each year on the first weekend in March. At these shows, the Colonial Rottweiler Club supports the Rottweiler entry (as well as puppy and veteran sweepstakes) for two days. Our breed drew the largest breed entry in all breeds, and our entry included some of the top dogs in the country. It was a weekend filled with beautiful dogs and fabulous friends. These are a unique group of shows. Many of our New England members and breeders not only come out to show but graciously donate items and funds making the prizes truly something you hope to win. Not only does the show offer a unique assortment of prizes but it also comes with it’s very own Rotti reporter Parker Sullivan (if you’re on Facebook I’m sure you have seen his smiling face). Parker comes to the shows to partake in photo ops, collecting donations, soliciting new members, promote ring side camaraderie and sometimes is a fancy show dog himself! If you are so inclined to brave the New England weather in March, why not join us next year. You can enter 4 shows (2 All-Breed shows, 2 limited Breed shows) and 2 sweeps - perfect if you have a Rottweiler youngin’ or one in their golden years. I can assure you, you will not only find a lovely group of dogs to observe but also a lovely group of people to hang ringside with and enjoy the shows. - Maureen Sullivan
