EVENTS

We hold a practice event the first Sunday of every month. We do hold practices December-January or July-August weather permitting. All sighthounds are welcome, in fact, we encourage all breeds and also mixed breeds to come out for a bit of fun! You may want to consider arriving at the meet earlier in the day, or plan on staying later into the afternoon to take advantage of the club's informal "talk sessions." This time provides an opportunity for people interested in expanding their knowledge about coursing to talk to the club officers and experienced members about general dog care and conditioning, basic first-aid tips for coursing dogs, and allows for a hands-on explanation of how to set up and operate the coursing equipment. We do hold official LGRA events, please check our LGRA page for more information and dates.

from 10:30 AM - 2 PM (or thereabouts) DIRECTIONS: Take your best route to the PA Northeast extension, I-476. Take the Lansdale Exit 31 (Kulpsvile, Route 63). Make a right at the end of the exit, onto Rt 63 West. Follow Route 63 West (Away from Kulpsville and Philly) for approximately 6 miles. The site is on the right side of the road, You'll see a metal sign: Jacob Schmidt & Son, 1936 Sumneytown Pike (same as Route 63), Harleysville, PA. If you cross the intersection of Routes 63 and 563, you have barely gone too far. (the coursing field sits in the wedge between the two roads) For a map of the location Click here .

If there is a doubt as to a cancel or delay of a scheduled event (usually due to extreme heat or rain/snow), check this page: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lvcoursingclub/?yguid=260174454 where we post cancellations, or call one of the club officers.
