4. OD stakes will commence (braces 3-8) first thing Saturday morning on the south courses. Please meet at the clubhouse by 7:15 AM, and be prepared for a breakaway on the south courses at 8 am.
5. The Amateur Shooting Dog (ASD) stake will commence on the south courses once the OD derby stakes have finished their 4th brace of the day (two on the south courses and two on the boy Scout courses).
6. The Puppy stake will commence on Saturday afternoon - Time to be determined.
7. With the forest roads still in "early season” condition, it is imperative we minimize car/truck travel whenever possible. Due to our permitting, no more than 3 trucks are allowed past the gates at anytime, and we will provide a flatbed trailer with dog boxes to help move people/dogs to the courses.
8. Finally, to receive points for your placement(s), you must be a member of the AFTCA. Membership is relatively affordable ($25) and you can sign up (or renew) here: https://www.aftca.org/members-area/member-profile/.
