These are WWWA's anticipated practice dates for March and April (updated with May dates too).  Practice will begin at 11:00 and run until everybody's had at least two runs.  Please remember that all participants and any guests will be signing an indemnity agreement.  We will be starting over for the new practice year.  We ask that you bring crates with to confine your dogs except during warm up, running, and cool down.  Appropriate collars for your dogs while being walked are martingales (when pulled up tight the rings should be an inch or two apart) or choke collars (if you have a choke collar and don't know how to properly fit it, hollar and I will show you).  Poop bags and water are a necessity.  Anything that comes in with you goes out with you.  There are no garbage facilities at the field.  However there is a bathroom for the humans!   I will e-mail a reminder to everybody mid week prior to practice.  Be sure to check your e-mail morning of.  If the weather does not cooperate or David has to work the weekend, I will have an e-mail out by 8:00 the morning of the practice.  Cost is the same as last year.  $5.00 for the owner of the field and $2.00 per dog.  Minimum two practice runs, with the possibility of three or four dependent upon how many dogs show up.  Puppies and newbies always get more than two. 5 March, Saturday 13 March, Sunday CANCELLED 19 March, Saturday 3 April, Sunday 10 April, Sunday CANCELLED 24 April, Sunday 14 May, Saturday TIME CHANGE to 2:00 p.m. 21 May, Saturday

Practices will be held at the Cascade Family Fliers field south of Snohomish.  One last thing, my phone number is 425-293-3776.  Please don’t use the number on the Cascade Family Fliers website. That goes directly to the field owner, Mark.  I’m quite active on my computer.  If you e-mail me with questions, almost for sure, I will be back to you within a day if not sooner.

CCC also has their practice schedule up.  Anybody wanting to participate can take a look at CCC's website or drop me an e-mail and I will forward you the schedule.

As usual, I will remind everybody mid-week prior and if there is to be a cancellation I will let everybody know by the latest 8:00 day of.
