We're delighted to hear of your interest in DFWLRC! This application is designed to accommodate and identify your needs. The Club encourages you to try new areas and experience all the Labrador world has to offer. Please complete this form and submit payment to the Membership Chair.

An Application to the DFWLRC is a two‐step process. Your application will be presented to the membership at the first general meeting following receipt of your application. At the following meeting, the membership will vote on your application if a quorom is present, and you will be notified of the outcome. You are welcome to attend meetings and events prior to applying for membership and are encouraged to attend the meetings at which your application is being reviewed.

You may ask how you can volunteer while you are far away or too busy to attend meetings?

We have many options under "other" and many tasks that can be done from afar using computers! Some examples are to submit articles to our newsletter, solicit raffle items for our specialty show, club fundraising, or running our annual awards. There are ways for you to reap the benefits of your club even if you are far away! Please consider helping!

You can also host a meeting or a training day at your house or property!
