Trial will run May 26th, 27th and 28th, starting at noon on May 26 with Novice/Novice and Pro-Novice classes. Saturday and Sunday will be ranch, open, and USBCHA nursery.
All handlers are invited to a Pot Luck Supper after the trial (in the trial area) on Saturday. |

In order for the trial to run smoothly, we will need the help of the handlers. Please volunteer for one of the following work areas: take down of fencing, sheep pen, setting out sheep, announcing to the public, scribing for the judge, and secretarial duties.
Open / Novice Mentoring
The open/novice mentoring is intended to help novice handlers learn about sheepdog trials from more experienced handlers. Topics can include judging and evaluating runs, sheep handling (sheep pen), spotting and exhaust work. Open and novice handlers will be paired for one-on-one mentoring. If you would like to participate, please check the appropriate line on the entry form.
