Thanksgiving Show 2023 and Top Open Winners at Merced



The traditional Thanksgiving show was held for many years, earlier at Lodi then moved to Stockton, then stopped due to the increase in building cost and then COVID.   It's baaaaack!!!   Due to the colder weather and potential rain, open barns are not suitable for shows held in October through February.  The Merced Yosmite Hall is a perfect venue with a reasonable cost.  The building is over 10,000 square feet, climate controlled and totally enclosed.  The floor is very smooth, easy to roll our carts around.  The CRCS crew of four ran the show efficiently without any issues.   Kudos to CRCS, thank you Kathi, Jordan, Griffin and Arian.



Judge Doug King is the show A Best In Show judge.  He picked the New Zealand by Ceajay Palanca as the Best In Show and Teri Griffin's Tan as the Reserve In Show.  



In Show B judge Misty Polisak awards the Best In Show to the Jersey Wooly shown by Carla Morrison.  



The show B Reserve In Show goes to a Silver Fox shown by Jenn Wallace.



CeaJay's New Zealand returns as the Best In Show in show C under judge Kate Smith.  




Show C Reserve In Show is Betty Chu's English Angora.
