August 4, 2013
Hello, Everyone!
Thank you for entering
the August 10-11, 2013 CPE trial hosted by AgileDogs Agility Training, the 8th
Annual “Crystal’s Spirit Award” Trial. This is your entry
confirmation. Your individual entry confirmation will be coming in a
separate email. Please be sure to look at it closely and let me know
of any errors or move ups. We have 426 runs on Saturday and 491 runs
on Sunday.
We are going to do our best to move the trial along efficiently while making
sure everyone has a safe and successful run and gets their time in the ring.
Walk throughs will be timed at 7 minutes all weekend long. We will be
counting on our volunteers (thank you so, so much!) to help make the weekend
go smoothly. We will be
utilizing a second ring for some classes to minimize down time, and Eileen
Keegan will be judging one class each day (see schedule below).
Please listen to both the general briefing in the morning and the
judge’s class briefings for ways we can make the trial run more efficiently
and for any changes to the schedule.
Awards:
Perfect weekend rosettes will be awarded to teams achieving Q’s in all 10
runs.
EIGHTH ANNUAL CRYSTAL’S SPIRIT AWARD:
This award is given in memory of Crystal, Trisha’s
first agility dog and her inspiration for starting AgileDogs Agility
Training. The judges will give this award to a dog/handler team that aren't
necessarily the fastest or get the most Q’s, but that has the most fun and
the handler gets the most out of the dog - you know, like Crystal was in her
day.
Check-in, Measuring, and Starting Times:
Saturday: Check-in,
measuring, will be from 7:00 – 7:30
Measuring:
See the website (www.agiledogs.net)
for the list of dogs who will need to get measured at this trial.

Only a few copies of the run catalog will be available at the trial.
The catalog will be available for download and printing on Wednesday night
at

TENTATIVE CLASS SCHEDULE:
The following class, level, and height order is tentative, and subject to
change if necessary.
There will be NO measuring of dogs AFTER the Judges Briefing begins each day
– ALL DOGS WITHOUT A PERMANENT HEIGHT CARD MUST BE MEASURED before the
Judges’ Briefing in order to show that day – THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS.
Volunteers:
The volunteer schedule will be posted on the AgileDogs website by Thursday.
Thanks to all who volunteered!
If you want to volunteer or have questions, please email Lisa Norris,
jumpinbeandogs@hotmail.com .
Please do not worry about conflicts between classes you’re working
and classes you’re running in. All workers will be accommodated.
You can move your dog within a class to make sure you have time to
concentrate on having a successful run with your 4-footed partner.
If your job for a given class is timer, scribe, assistant scribe, or gate
steward, please report to the chief ring steward when the briefing for the
class begins, so you can prepare for your job and so the judge can brief you
if needed – thanks! If your job is anything not already mentioned, you
can report any time before or during the walk through.
Food:
We are pleased to have Cam’s Kitchen on board as our food vendor at this
trial! They will be offering
breakfast and lunch all weekend. Volunteers will get lunch tickets
good at the food vendor.

During the trial, move-ups in Standard, Jackpot, and
Snooker will be taken at the show, and must be submitted to the Show
