The side of the building that would be used to conformation will have to be made smaller for us to show in. It is huge.

You catch both from coming into contact ith germs from other people. The only reason cold/fly season coincides with older weather is because people tend to stay indoors more when it's colder, herefore spreading germs. Just wanted to clarify as not to scare people from ver being outdoors in cooler or colder weather. <vbg> owever, I am not comfortable when cold either and would say IF our National ere to ever be considered outdoors again, we would have to think about having t earlier. Early October at the latest.....depending on the region it was eld.

It es make some sense to have everything on site and all performance on the me days followed by all conformation. We would have to manage conflicts r people who do multiple performance events (which we already have to do), t we would eliminate conflicts between people who do performance plus nformation. A schedule could look something like this: Herding t-Sun-Mon Agility Sun-Mon-Tue, Obed Mon, Rally Tue, conformation Wed-Sat. me for all or as much as you like. Herding - outdoors, the rest - doors. onformation - definitely indoors!! I don't want to be rained on, snowed , sunburnt; I don't want to sit on cold metal bleachers and I don't want catch the flu every Fall from being out in the cold and wind for a week. t maybe that's just me. ;-) think the bigger issues are footing for the conformation dogs and ndlers, and seating for the spectators. Yes, this facility was built for g shows, but not a dog show like ours. I haven't seen it, but those sues do seem solvable. I would just ask that once we have perfected this te, we return to it every time we cycle to "central" so our flow would be st - Purina - West - Purina - East - Purina, etc. with West truly being ose for the people who live there. hanks, m - have puppies! http://kimberliteshepherds.googlepages.com/ =========================================================================== ST is Copyrighted 2010.
