Thank you, Carolyn. It is good to hear that these facilities are ok. I hope
that our new Board will make a decision according to what they KNOW and not
what they HEAR. My guess is we'll be allright, I was really looking forward
to Utah since I missed the last two Nationals.

Thanks for the helpful post Janice.
I will try to go with my fading memory.
You are correct. This is a different site than many seem to be concerned
about.
The arena is great..... lots of room for a lot of Vendors and they can look
down on the arena from
all angles...... and yes, there will be SOD!!
Good chance there will be sod going to the stalls if necessary, .....since
they are not IN the arena
building but next to it..........although I recall that space as being paved
The stalls do have an open area at the top....but there is some discussion
about that and possibly
putting the heavy plastic over that open area if it is a concern for
weather.
There is TONS of grass around the area.......enough for a Futurity and an
All Breed show with
space and grass left over.
Herding facilities are great........and right there.
When we drove from the Colorado National and got caught in the snow storm
and had a long slow drive due
to the weather conditions........we could feel a HUGE difference when we
dropped down out of Wyoming
into Salt Lake City. It was very warm and mild by comparison.
Typically Salt Lake City airport is easy to get in and out of with a dog.

I don't know what the official host hotel will be, but there are several
hotels and motels in the
Layton area that are dog friendly and about 10 minutes from the show site.
If you're concerned
about availability, you could probably make a reservation at
one,...........
............The site in Farmington is not the one used for the Beehive
Cluster that Kathy was mentioning.
The Farmington site is the one used for the Bonneville Basin KC shows in
the fall, and was where the
Futurity and Salt Lake Specialty shows were held. Neither used the arena
or horse facilities.
.......... I believe the GSDCA was planning to use sod for the arena fairg
....... and I thought the fairgrounds was going to build some improved
stall areas - not positive on that,
maybe someone else has the packet?
The RV parking proposed for the National was behind the Arena - not in the
parking lot used for the
All Breed shows.
Average weather for early October is 60's and 70's, though anything is
possible <g>. We get
an occassional nightime freeze, but snow is usually higher in the
mountains or farther north.
As Connie said, last weekend was high 70's and sunny. This week we had a
cool front with some rain
that dropped us down to the low 60's, but the rest of the week is supposed
to be sunny and warmer.
Lodging and food are reasonable in cost - lower than many locations,
and yes, you can buy alcohol here
if you want it. There a quite a few restaurants with microbrewerys in the
Ogden area, and recent changes in
the state laws have eliminated the "private club" requirements for other
drinks. I don't drink, but friends who
do don't seem to have any problem finding places to party!
I'm sure the board or some of the Salt Lake club members can provide more
information - I live further north
so I'm not really in the loop on everything. I do hope we get the chance
to show you all some great hospitality
and a wonderful time next year!
