club sponsors a hound show for two consecutive years on a rotating basis. The New England Hound Show is an exciting event, and all New England hunt clubs participate. The event is held in concert with the Master of Foxhounds Association (MFHA). The MFHA is an umbrella organization promoting and supporting hunt clubs throughout North America. The MFHA’s goal in supporting hound shows is to promote hunt membership and public interest in hounds and increase participation. In addition, a hound show provides an opportunity for learning and the exchange of information, from evaluating the quality of hounds — breeding, and showing — to topics fundamental to the sport of mounted hunting with hounds. Several classes will be held demonstrating the training, ability, agility, obedience, and overall fitness of each club’s hounds. This year’s event will be held at Tyrone Farm in Pomfret. For more information, please contact Leslie at lecashel1@outlook.com or Nancy at austin211@gmail.com.
We’ll have a number of other events throughout the summer and a full slate of hunts starting in the fall. Our staff, especially the Masters, have been working diligently to acquire new venues for hunts in addition to maintaining the existing venues we have.
