(October 19, 2013) The Maine Golden Retriever Club at its Annual Meeting in October unveiled its new “Golden Head & Tail” Coin. Charles L. Cragin, President of MGRC, expressed pleasure with the coin designed by noted Maine artist, Roger Williams, of Lovell, Maine. “This is a memento that the club will use to express its appreciation to individuals who make contributions to the club and the breed. It is also a souvenir that MGRC members can own and utilize to express personal appreciation to folks who help them in the nurturing of the Golden Retriever breed”, Cragin said.
“The head of the coin proudly displays the club’s affiliation with the American Kennel Club and the Golden Retriever Club of America while the tail expresses the club’s recognition of those who
support Golden Retrievers”, Cragin added.
The Maine Golden Retriever Club will hold a Specialty AKC B Sanctioned Obedience Match in conjunction with the York County Kennel Club on November 24th. “Every registrant will receive the coin
as a commemorative souvenir of participation in the match,” Cragin said. For more information on the match, contact Lauren Booth, Match Chair, at Booth.e.lauren@gmail.com
