Patrick,
There are two reasons, I think, that people get testy about this site
1. The attempt to move the 2012 National to it instead of the already
reserved (and deposit paid) Colorado site. Because of the November
date chosen for that, it would have meant that many would not have
been able to fly dogs in because of weather restrictions.
2. Even in good weather it is difficult to fly dogs in because there
is no Hub for an airline in St. Louis. That makes getting the 500 crate
that most GSD are required to use very difficult to get into planes
that are not large enough to have doors to accommodate them.
If this facility was closer to a Hub, there would be more enthusiasm
for it. JMHO

Ed, you're absolutely right. Outside or inside if what the director told me
is still accurate. Inside flooring is the same material that is used for
Olympic track and field events. Outside is beautiful grass. Plus they have
a herd of sheep on site for us to use at no cost. I spoke with the
director of operations there before construction was completed on it and
have been bringing this site up on this list for at least two years. It
usually just makes everyone mad. I don't know why. I guess it's because
this site is not in California or New York or Texas or Colorado or Florida
or............
