Hello, This years Herding offerings will be on-site in Farmington! We will be offering 2-days of round pen GSDCA Instinct Testing and 3 Course-A events. Unfortunately, the Farmington site herding conditions and reasonable distance/livestock surrounding Farmington were not appropriate to offer a successful C-Course this year. However, we will be expanding our offerings next year, as the trial location and livestock for herding has been identified and is appropriate to offer not only A and C Course but also B Course! This years Herding Premium List will be mailed in the same envelope as the Premium List including all of our National events. You may also download the Premium List at http://www.gsdca.org/images/pdf_items/2010herdingtrialpremium.pdf. If you are interested in sponsoring any herding trophies or rosettes, please contact our trophy chairperson, Dorothy Linn at linnloch@xxxxxxxxxxxx If you are interested in learning more about herding and are planning on being in Farmington on Saturday or Sunday, we welcome volunteers for an hour or two (no experience necessary)! Please note the herding entry closing date is September 22nd. The Herding Instinct pre-entry form and release may be found on page 28 at http://www.gsdca.org/images/pdf_items/2010gsdcapremiumlist.pdf. If you have any questions, please contact either our Herding Secretary or you may contact me. I look forward to seeing you in Farmington...not only around the conformation ring but also the herding arena!
