The INBC is a relativly new beagle club – our first specialty shows were last year (2025) and so we tried to put on a show with excellence that exhibitors would want to come to. We were very proud of the ribbons and prizes offered – many were hand made by member Heidi McKeon from Tradewinds. Thankyou to her. Thank you to show chair Lorna Boydston, and to raffle hustler extraordinaire Dolly Stearns for having such amazing things for us to raffle off. Thank you to Ruthie for making a cohesive and beautiful website for us to enjoy. Thank you to exhibitors Pia, Robyn and Diana for driving from several states away to join us for the weekend – it was SO fun to have you all there.
