Goldstock is held at Camp Weequahic in Lakewood, PA on Labor Day weekend and hosted by Gail Lustig. Goldstock is a celebration of our dogs and of rescue. This event was started as a small get together and in support of Golden Retriever Rescue. Over the years it has grown to include over 30 rescue groups selling wonderful merchandise; more than 300 people from all over the US, as well as Canada and the UK; and well over 400 very happy dogs. In the 8 years of Goldstock, several hundred thousand dollars has been raised for rescue. The weekend includes many events such as the Doggie Olympics, CGC & TDI testing, Senior Recognition and Rescue Parades and the Candle Ceremony.

Goldstock 2006 was the wettest year so far as the remnants of Hurricane Ernesto stayed for the weekend. But we did not let it "rain on our parade" and held some of the events indoors. Nothing can dampen our golden hearts!
