Our Fall B-Match was held on October 7, 2007 at Herman C. Michael Park in Watkinsville, GA in coordination with our Responsible Dog Ownership Day.  In addition to the B-Match activities several educational opportunities were available including a Junior Showmanship Clinic, booths offering educational material on the proper care of dogs and training tips, a "Meet the Breed" where people could see and ask questions about different breeds of dogs, Canine Good Citizen (CGC) testing, information about Therapy Dogs and the opportunity to read to a Therapy Dog, and an agility course was also set up and available for demo's and visitors.

Congratulations all the Winners!

Also, a special thank you to the community of Oconee County for supporting AKC Responsible Dog Ownership Day, the terrific judges, the 300 individuals that attended the event and B-Match and the outstanding ORKC volunteers for helping to make this Event a great success.
