American Chesapeake Club
National Breed Show & National Field Trial

These events are held yearly and rotate in different parts of the country. I have done coverage of these events for the ACC for many years.  Take time to view results and pictures of hundreds of Chesapeakes on the American Chesapeake Club's website! I love doing this each year and it is my offering for the breed and the owners to enjoy.

In October, 2005, the ACC Show and Field Trial specialties were held on consecutive weeks in the same part of the country.  This was the most exciting thing to happen on the east coast in a long long time for the brown dogs.  In one week you could attend and see close to 350 Chesapeakes at the National Show and over 150 at the National Field Trial within a few hours drive of each other.  You can view pictures and results on the American Chesapeake Club Website listed above.
