Host Club Instructions

Regional Clubs associated with the STCA may choose to host one or more Specialty Breed Shows each year.  Each club has the responsibility for picking the judging panel and completing the necessary paperwork to hold an AKC-sanctioned event.

NOTICE To Event Secretaries -- Regional Clubs are reminded that your Event Secretary needs to file a letter with the STCA Corresponding Secretary requesting approval for your show before applying to the AKC.  The STCA approval letter and event application are due at the AKC twenty four (24) weeks prior to the proposed closing date.

Please contact the webmaster for instructions if you have entry forms or additional show/site specific information that you would like to have posted on this site.

Click on the Regional Specialty Schedule link above for a listing of specialty shows that have been approved for this year.  Please note that information will not be posted to the STCA Specialty Schedule page until the show has been approved by the STCA and the event application has been accepted by the AKC. 

The schedule page also has links to show results. We will post show results as soon as the information is received from the club's Event Secretary.  The STCA will make every effort to post information as quickly as possible; however, accuracy will be emphasized over speed.  Official sources such as the Event Secretary or the AKC will be our primary source.

How To Post Data to the Specialty Schedule -- The STCA Event Schedule page uses a database to post the schedule and results. Any club member can submit updated information through the on-line Update forms.  Click on one of the Edit or Update links and an update form will appear. 

When you fill out the form, you will need to use an Access Code in the second box.  The code for the year 2010 is:  STCA2010  Note that the code has no spaces.  Please record your name and e-mail address at the bottom of the form as well.  When entered properly, you will receive a copy of the update e-mail.

National (Rotating) Specialties

In approximately 1990, the STCA Board of Directors organized the Regional Scottish Terrier Clubs into four regional groups.  The objective was to provide a mechanism for sharing the privilege of hosting a national specialty among all of the affiliated clubs.  Since 1991 the annual National Rotating Specialty has been rotated among these four regional groups, with each club in the region having an equal opportunity to host the specialty. 

The current list of regional groups and the STCs in each group is shown below.

Montgomery County Information

The annual Montgomery County Kennel Club (MCKC) dog show is certainly a Special Event in the mind of many Scottie fanciers.  Sanctioned by the AKC as an All-Terrier (versus an All-Breed) Show this event is attended by people from all over the United States as well as many countries around the world.

The STCA sponsors a series of events over the entire Montgomery County weekend that help make this an awesome weekend.  The official STCA Information Packet published each summer provides information on area hotels, maps to the various show sites and the latest schedule of events.
