CHILDREN AT CLUB TRAINING

Due to undesirable behaivour by some unsupervised children during training, disrupting classes by running on to the training area during classes and
making unwanted advances towards other members' dogs the committee has agreed a club policy that all children must be directly supervised whilst at the club.
Please ensure that any children accompanying you to training are asked to behave appropriately.

The general community who utilize Churchill Park together with the Tasmanian Dog Training Club Inc. (TDTC Inc.)  are already realizing  the positive benefits from a new Industrial Safety Fence project recently completed by the TDTC Inc. following a successful grant from the Tasmanian Community Fund (TCF).

TDTC Inc. President, Mrs Lyn Deitch, said the new industrial safety fencing would be important for the whole community who utilize Churchill Park as it focuses on the security of untrained off-lead dogs during education lessons and the safety of the general community members utilizing the park.

Mrs Deitch said the TDTC Inc, a community based volunteer organization,  was delighted to receive the TCF funding as it would have a positive impact on the TDTC Inc., its members, supporters and the general community.

“While we are pleased that the Tasmanian Community Fund could see the worth of the program, we believe that the fact that we were able to demonstrate the whole-of-community benefit, was a major factor in our gaining grant support,” Mrs Deitch said. “We believe we presented a good business case with clear and comprehensive budget protocols that highlighted the value of the new project to our club and the community as a whole”. 

The independent community funding body, the Tasmanian Community Fund was established following the sale of the Trust bank in 1999 to give back to the community proceeds from the sale of a community asset. Since that time the TCF has allocated approximately $58.6 million to approximately 1700 statewide projects.
