Many club activities continue to be suspended or modified.

However, now that Baltimore County has dramatically expanded the types of businesses that may reopen, Oriole will resume some very limited activities in the building this summer.  Possibilities include staging some limited “by appointment” trialing opportunities for the organizations that support submission of video’ed performances including AKC Rally Novice, USDAA@Home agility, and WCRL Rally@Home.

In addition, we are exploring expansion of our online class options and establishing a small number of outside/off-site classes.  You will find these listed on the Home page when available, and they will be announced here and on the Facebook page.

There are some new event cancellations.

The August 8-9 and August 29-30 NAFA flyball events are cancelled.  NAFA has informed all clubs to cancel flyball tournaments through the end of September.

The August 15-16 CPE agility event is cancelled.

Our August AKC rally/obedience trial is still pending.

With respect to Oriole’s pending obedience/rally trials to be held on August 21-23, our Secretary, Clantyre, has received some entries even though the premium has not yet been finalized or approved.   These will be returned to the exhibitors and we ask that everyone please wait until the premium is officially posted.  Note that the premium will contain a COVID guidelines/hold harmless waiver.
