As it turns out, I have a boy with a hitch in his right front getalong plus a girl with an imminent come-into-season.  So, we decided to have an impromptu  practice at the new field on Sunday instead of going racing. Practice will be at the same field as last Sunday - Cascade Family Fliers - which is located not quite two miles south of Snohomish (measured from Lincoln Ave. and 2nd which is towards the east end of town).  There is a map at the Fliers website:  http://www.cascadefamilyflyers.com/location.html Signup is between 11:00 and 11:30.  If you arrive late, your dog will be placed at the bottom of the board draw.  We try to guarantee that your dog(s) will receive at least two runs but if we're on the second board draw when you arrive, it's entirely conceivable that your dog(s) will receive only one run.

There is a potty facility on the grounds.  Bring your own toilet paper.  You will need to provide water and poop bags for your dogs.  Anything that comes in with you goes out with you.  The owner does not provide garbage facilities.

Please, please do not call the number listed on the Cascade Fliers website. That is the owner's phone number.  He got alot of calls last week and really doesn't want to be my secretary <g>!  My number is 425-293-3776.  I'm more easily reached via computer and endeavor to answer e-mails promptly.
