News regarding shows, club activities, etc. in Washington? Please contact our reps below so we can post the information...
 My name is Aggie Mowry. I was raised in the Netherlands by a Dutch dad and a British mom. I came to the USA in 1986, and met and married my husband, Doug in 1987. We have 3 children (Sarah, Tim, Hannah), and have lived in the Tri Cities area of Washington since 1994.
My involvement with rabbits started while raising them through my growing up years, as pets. Today our family raises Tans, Netherland Dwarf and a Velveteen Lop rabbit, and American and White Crested cavies. I believe rabbit and cavy raising is a great hobby and a vehicle of learning for all ages. It loans itself particularly well for 4-H projects. Through my oldest daughter I became involved in rabbit and cavy 4-H, and I am now the General leader of Rada Rabbits & Cavies 4-H with around 40 wonderful youth and families. I am also on the Youth committee for the WSRBA, and help put on the state Royalty contest every June.
The WSRBA and the ARBA have amazing youth programs which tie right in with the learning goals in the 4-H projects. I have attended every ARBA National Convention since 2000, and have encouraged my own 2 daughters and many other youth to participate in these ARBA youth program and Royalty contests. Along with the experience of studying about rabbits and cavies, I see that the travel, teamwork and comradery with other youth on the district makes them grow so much!
Through the hobby of rabbit and cavy raising I see great ways for youth and grown-ups alike to practice skills like getting along, working hard, using common sense and having fun. When these things happen, we all benefit, and we can make a difference in people's lives. Contact Me...

 My name is Kevin Rudolph, and I am honored to have been selected by Roger to serve you as one of the ARBA Representatives for Washington State. I am 30 years old, and reside in Puyallup, WA. I have been married to my wife Jamie for 5 years. I have grown up in the rabbit hobby, my family has had rabbits as long as I can remember. I started showing as a youth in 1987. Through the years I have been involved in most aspects of our hobby. I competed in both State and National Royalty programs, was very active in 4-h as well as FFA during my High School years. I have served as a board member for our WSRBA, Vine-President of the Great Northwest Show Group, current President of the Evergreen Rabbit Breeders Association, and held many offices including President and Secretary for the Washington State Holland Lop Rabbit Club. I have been both Show Superintendent and Show Secretary for many shows including the WSRBA State Convention. I was part of the crew that brought you the 1993 ARBA National Convention.
I received my registrars license in 1994 at the age of 15, and my judges license in 1997 at 17. My Father and Step Mom (Floyd & Charmaine Rudolph) are both ARBA Judges, and my younger brother Scott is a Registrar. I have raised a number of Breeds in my 22 years of raising and showing rabbits, but my focus is now on the Holland Lops. I have just recently began a small Mini Satin operation.
I really enjoy working with the youth of our hobby. I enjoy speaking at 4-H and youth club meetings, judging youth shows and mentoring the future of our hobby!
I currently work as a Para-transit Driver, transporting the Disabled and elderly to there medical appointments.
I am looking forward to serving you to the best of my ability. I think communication is the key to the improvement of our hobby. Please feel free to contact me any time with your questions or concerns, positive or negative! Contact Me...
