BIOS FOR 2015 QCDTC ELECTION
Erica Behnke—I've been a member of the club since 2004 and currently serve as President. I'm also the trial secretary for many of the agility trials held at QCDTC. My Brittanys and I have participated in agility and obedi-ence, and hope to add tracking to the list if I ever get free time. I'm also learning herding with my Border Collie. I've served six years as president of QCDTC, one year vice-president QCDTC, three years secretary Greenville Area DTC, and held numerous business-related committee memberships, board appointments and leadership roles.
Sarah Petersmann—
Catherine Bererich—I've been a member of Queen City since 2000. I enjoy training my Labradors and com-
peting in Agility. Recently I even dipped a toe inRally! In the "outside world", I'm a self employed
CPA. Currently
serving as Treasurer for the club, I feel my experience in accounting and running my own business brings an
advantage to our club and its success - financial and otherwise.
White Bourland—interested in Obedience and Agility. Handle building maintenance, club calendar, building supply
purchasing, one of the chief course builders in agility, chief plumber, run Papillons in agility.
Sandy Jennings—I have been a member of Queen City for 35 years. I began in obedience with my first Golden Retriever, Kicker. He earned a CD and a CDX. My next Golden, Kira, earned a CD. In addition to obedience I have dabbled in conformation. I show my dogs in UKC events as well as AKC. Being very interested in promot-ing and supporting QCDTC, I teach Puppy Kindergarten, Basic I, have served as the trial secretary for several obedience trials, ring stewarded, Pawprints editor and am currently a board member. I belong to the Cincinnati Kennel Club, the Greater Cincinnati Golden Retriever Club, the Golden Retriever Club of America, and the North-ern Kentucky Kennel Club. Professionally, I am a Human Resources professional with a Masters’ degree in Labor and Employment Relations and have earned the Senior Professional in Human Resources certification.
Marilyn Cones—Dogs have been an important part of my life. My father was a farmer and bred Border Col-
lies. He imported a dog from Scotland and used his dogs with sheep, cattle, and hogs. We would have 1 litter
a year with usually 7 puppies. When I finally bought a puppy for me when my children had grown, I got a Pem-
broke Welsh Corgi and fell in love with the breed. Took my first Corgi, Windsor, to Queen City for obedience
and have been working ever since at Queen City. Have concentrated mostly on obedience and rally, some
herding, and now have been involved in agility. A Bernese Mountain dog also lives at my house. Passing through the Denver Airport
many years ago, I saw a Berner. Asked the owners what it was. I thought it was the most beautiful dog I had ever seen and decided
one day I would have one. Spending years teaching elementary education has been beneficial in teaching Basic 1 obedience. The
classes are mostly pet people with their first dog. I encourage them to continue working and several have become active members of
the club. Was pleased to be asked to run for the board and will do my best to help the club in any way I possibly can.
