Welcome to the Steve Ferguson Memorial Retriever Grounds Inc.
It is our goal to maintain and enhance the beautiful grounds Steve built on his farm in Emporia, Virginia. These grounds continue to be available for retriever training, field trials, hunt test and other retriever events
because of Steve's wonderful family. We are offering memberships for amateur and professional
retriever trainers. Please browse through our website for more information on membership and
scheduled events.
SMFRG was founded by the three clubs of which Steve was a member; Blue Ridge Retriever
Club, Mid-Atlantic Hunting Retriever Club (now Old Dominion Retriever Club), and Tidewater Retriever Club. Members of these clubs are SFMRG Officers, Board Members, and volunteers who have worked tirelessly to
keeps Steve's dream alive.
We are dedicated to preserving the legacy of Steve Ferguson through maintaining his grounds
and promoting the sport he loved.
