Bear bay deadline 8:30 am

Field Trial 12pm

Water race 4 pm

$10 ENTRY FEE for competitors, plus $5 per event, per dog. all entry fees for events goes to the club.

BEAR BAY. (mechanical bear)
the bear bay will be a 3 dog cast due to the amount of hounds we have coming and the time we have to get this done in 1 day. if your only bring 1-2 hounds, you can try to team up with someone in the morning before the event or you will be put in a cast by random draw, just like field trials.

FIELD TRIALS.

field trial will be a 6 dog race, with line & tree winners.

WATER RACE.

the water race will either be a 4 -6 dog race
