This trophy features a watercolor portrait of the Grube's Ch. Celerity Gharbi Sahib Tali, mounted and preserved in a protective ash case. The watercolor was originally commissioned by the SCGSF in 1981 as a gift to Jack, who served the SCGSF as its President, supported by Kit for many years, providing a strong foundation and a positive example for the SCGSF membership. Upon the passing of both Jack and Kit, their family generously donated the portrait for its inclusion in this special trophy. For permanent possession, the trophy must be won three times by a dog with identical ownership, yet not necessarily with the same dog nor at consecutive shows. The trophy will remain in the possession of the Grube family until retired. A photograph of the trophy will be presented to each winner.

Thank you

Grooming & Set-Ups

No ex-pens permitted in any building.

Dogs and Equipment may be left in these buildings overnight but you do so entirely at your own risk. Please mark the top of each crate with the phone number where you may be reached should any problems arise in your absence. All buildings will be locked from 10:00 P.M. to 6:00 A.M. each evening. Neither the Officers & Directors, Employees & Members of the Alameda County Fairgrounds, MB-F, Inc., or the Club assumes any responsibility for lost, stolen or damaged property or dogs. Please stack crates and conserve space in consideration of others. A Roving Security Guard will be roaming the grounds overnight.

Grooming Building is located just West of the Hall of Commerce and will open Thursday afternoon at 2:00 P.M. and be available throughout the weekend.

Young California Building will be available for exhibitor set-ups after 2:00 P.M. on Friday. Please note: if you are set-up in this building prior to 2:00 P.M., you will be asked to move your equipment and dogs out.

Dog Washing on the Fairgrounds

Please note important new information!

The 1996 Clean Water Act is now being enforced at the Alameda County Fairgrounds. All gray water (which includes soapy water from washing dogs) must be discharged into sanitary sewer systems only and not dumped onto the ground or into storm drains. A hefty fine can be leveled against offenders. Del Valle will be placing Dog Bathtubs around the grounds for your convenience. Please check the Fairgrounds map in the Judging Program for designated dog washing locations. We will do our best to make it easy for all of you.

Show Limits

The Jockeys, trainers and horse owners have asked that no exhibitors or dogs be allowed by horse stables, race track or horse exercise areas. It frightens their animals. Please abide by their wishes.

THIS CLUB DOES NOT AGREE TO ARBITRATE CLAIMS AS SET FORTH ON THE OFFICIAL AKC ENTRY FORM FOR THIS EVENT.

Post Dated Checks, Returned Checks and Declined Credit Cards do not constitute a valid entry fee. The Superintendent will add a collection fee to the amount of each returned check or declined card. Subsequent returned checks or declined cards from the same exhibitors may result in their being put on a CASH ONLY basis.

No Refund for Duplicate Entries. Every effort to find all duplicate entries will be made; however, if entry has been processed, no refund will be made.

An Administrative Fee of $2.00 will be withheld from all refunds for entries cancelled prior to the closing of entries.

Errors on Entry Blanks. Owners are responsible for errors in making out entry forms, whoever may make such errors, and no entry fee will be refunded in event of such errors or cancellation of entries after the published closing date.

Dogs May Arrive any time prior to their scheduled time of judging. Dogs not required for further judging will be excused.

Judges Will Not Wait for Any Dog Holding Up a Class. Owners or agents alone are responsible for the presence of their dogs in the judging ring when their classes are called to be judged.

All Dogs Present must be held on leash or confined to their crates except when being judged or when in the exercising ring.

Class Cash Prizes will be paid in the ring to the person showing the dog. Claims for prize money must be made in the ring before the judging of that breed is over, and the Superintendent's Office advised at once. The Superintendents and show-giving Club disclaim any liability for cash prizes after the judging of the breed is over.

No gasoline or diesel generators are permitted inside any building or within 100 feet of any tent in which this dog show is conducted.
