What a great three day trial for Ups N Downs! We had over 70 competitors, over 100 dogs, and over 1000 runs at our trial! The best turnout for a good long while.
Thanks to the entire group for making the trial such a huge success, especially the hard working trial committee and all of our great volunteers! And thanks to Ken Perlmutter for bringing us such fun courses and being so upbeat all weekend (especially after our hot Friday start!)!! I think Touch N Go on Saturday was one of the most fun TnGo courses I've ever run and my dogs sure enjoyed it!
