This weblog, or "blog" will hopefully serve as a communication conduit for BIG SKY NAVHDA members. Any member can post, and as we get member email addresses, you will be "invited" to be an "author" to the blog - just follow the directions in the "invitation email" if you would like to post to the blog - If you do not receive an invitation, simply send an email with a request to: bigskynavhda@gmail.com requesting to be an "author". Ideally, we will be able to post all kinds of information, inlcuding resources, email lists of club members, or any other info that members feel is important to get posted. Posts will be made chronologically, with the most recent being on top. We will be rebuilding the "Bigskynavhda.com" site....but for the time being, this should serve as our e-resource.

Fall Test info

Hi Folks

Here is some information about our fall test- which is full, but please contact me to be put on the wait list for last minute cancellations.
We are using the Ninepipes test grounds in Charlo MT and as always we expect utmost respect for the property. We will have dog signs and a Purina banner to mark  the test site entrance. We ask that you water your dogs in specific areas prior to the test and crate or keep your dog on leash, when they are not actually running.  If you bring kids, please keep an eye on them so that they don't disturb dogs or test participants. We will discuss all of these points at the welcoming introduction the morning of the test.   Please make sure that your dogs have an up to date vaccination record, we will have a vet on call for the test if there are any emergency's.   There will be coffee and muffins by donation in the morning, and any additional baked goods are always welcome. We will have a simple hot lunch- all three days days at a nominal fee.  Saturday night dinner is on site and will be Barbeque Pork Brisket. Sunday night we will have a dinner at a Connie's Countryside Kitchen in Ninepipes. They are open for Breakfast at 6am.


We will have t-shirts to sell at the test in Orange and Grey for $15. Big Sky Chapter was first started in 1977 and since then the test has had a great history of yearly tests and training days. We have great expertise in the club and our mission is to help each other. So if you have any questions or concerns about the testing, preparing or training, please do not hesitate to give me a shout or an email, and I will try to get the information that you need. If anyone would like to volunteer to help at the test, please let me know.
Thanks
Leslie
