National Amateur Journey


Has started.... judges have arrived and setup is complete.  Last night we had our banquet, calcutta and opened up the silent auction.  Thanks to the members who came out to help get the land ready for setup, lots of grass cutting and trimming in this heat.

It was a great night and opening to the National.  The committee did a fabulous job.  Heather Stewart is heading up the hospitality.  The banquet was a great meal and well organized.

Alana did a terrific job on the silent auction, there are ton of great things to bid on.  Thanks to everyone who pitched in to help obtain items.

Tomorrow morning we start with Honourary test dog, Llyod & Raven, Tom & Blue as male test dog and Stan and Hannah as female test dog.

The first dog to run is #23, our own member Jill Richardson with Boss......Good Luck to everyone!
