National SpecialtyThe Newfoundland Club of New England is honored to host the 2025 NCA National Specialty, as we return to Warwick, Rhode Island. The Crowne Plaza Hotel is our home base from April 28 – May 3, 2025 where the staff is looking forward to the return of the Newfs for a 6th time since 1992! The hotel is fully accessible, with easy access to T.F. Green Airport and is minutes off I-95. Warwick is 10 minutes south of Providence and located within an easy drive from Boston Massachusetts, Connecticut’s casinos, Mystic Seaport, Rhode Island’s beautiful beaches, and the mansions of Newport. Many tourist locations in this area are dog friendly! Clubs from up and down the east coast are hosting the draft tests, obedience and rally trials, and NCNE is grateful for their assistance with these events! NCNE members are planning some new events to highlight the Newfs, breeders and those individuals who have been instrumental throughout the history of the breed. From the first draft test on Monday to the crowning of Best of Breed on Saturday, you will share a memorable week with friends old and new as we celebrate our Rich History and look forward to a Bright Future with our beloved Newfoundland dogs!
