Regional Organizations

Where regional associations exist, membership to CAHDS is obtained through the association. These associations are volunteer-driven and involve many dedicated volunteers working hard to develop and improve harness dog sports in their regions. If there is a regional association in your area, please be sure to support them and volunteer wherever possible! 

Your regional association is also your avenue of communication to CAHDS. Any concerns or suggestions you have regarding CAHDS initiatives, events, or direction should go through your regional association's board.  CAHDS will also bring major decisions to the regional boards for consideration and comment. It is up to the individual boards of Regional Organizations to determine if a matter requires a vote by its full membership or if it can be determined by the board or a designated committee.
