Animal Watchers Salute to Memorial Day (Qualifier)

We appreciate your coming to our event.  If there is anything we can do to make your experience better, please let us know.  Contact Person is Mary Watcher, 520-456-9020, mary@animalwatchers.com.

The State of Arizona does not require masks to be worn if you have been fully vaccinated.  However, social distancing should still be practiced. 

Please remember to bring your signed NADD waiver and signed NADD COVID-19 waiver (available on the NADD website).

We will have a food truck here on Saturday and Sunday.  We do not have fast food restaurants close by.  There is a Chevron station within a half-mile of us, and in Huachuca City (10 minute drive south of us) are a Circle K, and 3 restaurants.  Sierra Vista (15-20 minute drive) has plenty of fast food, chain restaurants, etc.

All start times are estimates.   We normally tend to start earlier than the listed time.  However, you will always get your splash if you are ready at the scheduled time.

To make the diving order easier, we are keeping the same diving order all three days.  We will use your dog's name in alphabetical order.

NADD Facility Event COVID-19 Plan

 OVERVIEW:

             We are in a rural area.  Events may be held as long as there is enough room to accommodate the 6-foot distance requirement.   The same 6-foot rule applies if you need to speak with the trial secretary, judges, etc.

Parking:  We will have a "loading/unloading" area for this event.  There is plenty of room for parking.  You may park anywhere except in front of the Kennel Office Door and to the right side of the kennel door.

Check-In.   A container will be on a table for:  1) NADD COVID-19 Waiver and 2) NADD Event Waiver.  Please remember these two Waivers must be completed, signed and dated prior to checking in.  They can be found on the NADD website and you may email them to me prior to the event:  mary@animalwatchers.com.

 Payment.  Please try  to have exact amount if paying by cash.  All checks need to be made payable to "Animal Watchers".  We will accept VISA or MC, 

Pool / Dock:  You will be entering the dock on the left staircase, it is clearly marked Entrance.  You will be leaving the pool by the right side staircase.  There will be a divider between the 2 staircases.  Please enter the pool area as soon as the person ahead of you has come down the steps and turned toward the Exit.  This will save a lot of time.  There will be 2 - 3 chairs under a shade canopy by the entrance to the pool.  This is to allow the next 3 people to be ready for their turn.

Scores:  To avoid a gathering of people, we encourage you  to check your scores on the NADD website.  They are normally posted a few minutes after the secretary enters them.

 Ribbons:  The ribbons are not self-serve.  We will give you your ribbons for the entire event.  For "new title" ribbons as well as Advanced and Excellent titles, you must pick up at the trial secretary's table.

Leaving the Event Grounds:  When your splashes are finished for the day, please exit the grounds as soon as you can.  The less people we have on the grounds the easier it is to maintain 6-feet from other people.

 Bathrooms.  For this event our inside bathroom will not be available for use.  We will have 2 Port-a-Potties near the pool.  There is a 3rd port-a-potty over next to the agility field.  These port-a-potties will each have a bottle of Lysol and paper towels so you can wipe the toilet seat, door handle, etc.  Hand sanitizers will be available right next to the port-a-potties.

 Driveway Gate:

Entering:  Our driveway has an electronic gate.  The key pad is on the left side (driver's side) when entering.  The Code is 1, 2, 3, 4.  The Code is also written on the key pad.

Exiting:  The gate should open automatically for you.  If it does not open there is a red box on the left side of the driveway that has a remote control in it which has always worked.  Just point it towards the gate, push the button and return the remote to the box.

 Parking:  You may park anywhere except in front of the Kennel Office Door and to the right side of the kennel door.

All dog must be on leash at all times except on the dock or inside the fenced potty area.

 Bring a canopy for shade, ground is dirt.  

Anyone who has a dog that easily gets overheated, see Mary and we should be able to have you crate your dog indoors.

Covered Agility Area.  You may set-up in the agility area, it is definitely cooler than under a canopy.  Do not use any of the agility equipment.  Anyone using the agility equipment will be asked to leave.

THE 12 ACRES THAT THE POOL IS ON IS NOT COMPLETELY FENCED IN.
