There are NO vendors this weekend so please bring drinks/snacks. You are welcome to setup a tent for shade by your car while you are here but please pack it up and take it with you after your block is over. 

 

-- Please note that the time blocks are done MANUALLY by hand as there is no way to sort this by last name in the NADD Portal. Yes, that means I literally sat down and wrote every single persons name in backwards (last name, first name, then dog name). There will be spelling mistakes and other mistakes and I apologize for that, I am only human. This sheet is just used for you/us to separate everyone into block times.... we have all the 'official NADD stuff' to use for entry, data, etc that is all 100% correct with names, what you entered, etc so have no fear! 

 

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Be sure to follow the event page on FB for updates should we have a weather delay: https://www.facebook.com/events/2386163938350407/

 

See you all this weekend for our last NADD event of the 2020 season!
