Guest Speaker Bonnie Keith presented a very interesting and informative talk at the July meeting.  She presented her background with animals, starting as a young child, and how she came to be in Chino Valley.  Bonnie is the club “Archivist”, she has been collecting important club history and events.  Over the years Bonnie has “archived” years of meeting minutes, documents and photos.  The beautifully done books were shared at the meeting and are available for all members to view and read. 

Among Bonnie’s extensive history with Dog Rescue, Showing and Training, are years at the San Diego Zoo and many stories of her wonderful dogs.  Not only have her dogs been Dog Fancy Center Folds, featured in many news articles, her special Rescue “Captain” is featured in the book “Our Best Friends”. Bonnie just happens to have a copy available for sharing with members under the watchful eye of her Manchesters.

Contact Bonnie  She welcomes all documents and photos!  Come see what the club has done over the years!

You too, can participate!  You too, can volunteer to help – just like Bonnie!
