The Platte Valley Hunting Retriever Club (PVHRC) is a non-profit organization consisting of hunters dedicated to improving their hunting experience through the improvement of their retrievers. Over the past twenty plus years, club members throughout Colorado and surrounding areas have gathered to train and hunt their companions in a low pressure environment highly conducive to the amateur hunter. If you would like to transform your canine friend into a highly effective retriever or bird flusher using humane methods in an entertaining environment, this organization is for you. In affiliation with the National Hunting Retriever Club, the Platte Valley Hunting Retriever Club is “Conceived by Hunters for Hunters.” (Check out the new Clubs and Regions section and then Region Reports and then Region 13 for more information about us). Want to really see what HRC is all about? Take a look at these videos on each level of testing. They really show you what we are all about and how are tests work!

Take a look at the very first Platte Valley Newsletter from August 1986.
Editor Rich Carpenter. Click here!
Hi Lee Ann,
Hope you and Dave and all the dogs are surviving the winter well.
I was looking for something else and found a computer file of the first PVHRC Newsletter. It came out in August of 1986. I gave the club the last extra hard copy of it I had some time ago. Didn’t realize I had a computer file of it, and hadn’t been able to open any old ones I’d found, but new MS Word seems to open what I found. It’s just text. Back then when I got drafted as first editor because I had access to computer and was willing, there wasn’t any fancy computer formatting and graphics were strictly photocopying logo, etc and pasting on the master to take to the copy place. So file is just the txt of that first newsletter. Thought I’d send it along to you, in case you wanted to see that it got into right place for club files if it’s something the club wants a file of, or if you want it for historical interest for web site. Or if not, feel free to hit delete. ; )
Been a long time since back then with Omar coming out to do our first Judge/Handler seminar out west of Platteville and going on a sports talk radio show in Denver another time. Can still remember that hail storm as we wrapped up the seminar. Big hail there, 2”, but just fell straight down. But big swath along hwy 85 had head high corn cut down like it had been chopped for silage.
