Following the success of the SFLS Lappylympics fun days and the very enjoyable inter breed general knowledge quizzes run by Southern Finnish Lapphund Society, The Keeshond Club and the Samoyed Clubs, a new event was conceived: Spitz in the Park (SitP).
SitP was a fun-packed weekend, with camping facilities for all spitz breeds. The theme of the weekend is Fun, Fun, and more Fun. With plenty of activities for everyone, including spitzlympics, KC Good Citizen Testing, grooming workshops, show handling workshops, general knowledge quiz, BBQ and more….. The event extended a warm welcome to all spitz enthusiasts and their friends.
Sadly in 2026 the committee of teh SFLS decided that the annual SITP even was no longer viable – due to increased costs and lack of suitable venues. A tough decision, but we hope those who attended over the years have fond memories. – the SiTP Facebook page is still live so can look back fondly at the antics.
