Someone on the herding committee has to find suitable local-ish sheep preferably actually WORK them ahead of time with a GSD to prove their uitability) then arrange to have them trucked in a couple days (minimum) before he event to get comfortable with the site. Courses need to be measured, fenced laid out. Holding pens, if not available, must be built. Testing areas set up, ada yada yada. THEN some advanced dog (GSD, preferably) should work the sheep o ensure they are suitable come trial day. The committee members choose to find a facility near-ish the National site so hey do not have to work their @sses off. Using an existing site allows the ommittee members to walk in day-of & leave every night without wondering if the ite is cleaned up, the sheep are fed & watered, etc. GSD Herders will do all this & more, to have their dogs showcased ON SITE at the ational.
