Dear Friends, Clubs, Professional Trainers and Businesses,
The Manitoba Gun Dog Association is proud to host the 2025 National Retriever Championship in September 2025 at our private grounds. Planning for the event is well underway, and we look forward to hosting the top field trial retrievers and handlers from across Canada and the United States.
As you can imagine, hosting a National Retriever Championship requires fundraising to ensure a successful and quality event. The MGDA would therefore like to ask you to consider supporting the 2025 National through one of the sponsorship options.
Many thanks.
