Our Specialties have had different names from 2003 to present:
Commotion at the Ocean
Star Spangled Specialty
Come Fool Around with Us
Hair at the Fair
Started in 2003 by Jean and Irwin Richland, continued by Anna Marie Yura, the BCCSC had independent specialties held in Ventura California. In 2014 Susann Brody continued the tradition but the club did an embedded show in Ventura, rather than an independent show and brought back supported entry days with trophies included. In 2016- 2024 Kirsten Andreassend became the showchair and brought back the independent specialty in Bakersfield, California with 2 independent specialties in one day and sweepstakes, all with ribbons, trophies and supported entry days with trophies. In 2016, the traditional specialty was moved to Bakersfield where the club held 2 Independent Specialties in one day and Sweepstakes. 2016’s theme was “Come Fool Around with Us!” since it fell on April Fool’s day! In 2017, the tradition continues in Bakersfield with 2 Independent Specialties in one day and Sweepstakes. 2017’s theme was “Hair at the Fair.” In 2018 we had one Specialty day and 2 supported entry days. Lots of fun. In 2019 we've changed it up again and we're having TWO Specialties. On Friday, March 29th, 2019, we were excited to have Linda Buckley from Australia judging the specialty in the morning. Then on Saturday, March 30th, 2019, we welcomed Rebecca Copus-Guthrie of Canada to judge puppy and veteran sweeps in the morning followed by Jess Buckley of Australia to judge the Specialty. These shows were held concurrently with the Wines & Vines Cluster shows March 28th through March 31, 2019. The BCCSC will be supporting the entries on Thursday and Sunday too. You had 6 chances to show your dogs in 4 days. Show all or mix and match! Whatever suits you. Hold on to your hats because that's not all.... 4 days of obedience and rally! We've also been told we'll be offering Barn Hunt, Lure Coursing and Fast Cat to the fun! You will also have the ability to get your dog's eyes OFA test done or have your boys collected and frozen for future use. In 2020 and 2021 we had to cancel the show due to Covid. We look forward to 2022 and meeting up with all of our friends! 2022 is in the books. What an amazing get-together or Beardies. 6 shows in 4 days, between Specialties and All-Breed! In 2023 we are again having a fabulous Specialty and also 4 all breed shows. Please see this page. In 2024, 1 Specialty and 4 all-breed days plus lots of other activities for your Beardies!
