North Bay

[blackstorm]

I am going up on Friday to run my first Open this year. ( all of the American trials have been limited or specials). Is anybody else going up? What up with the expensive motels in Callender and North Bay most were over $100 Canadian.

I'm heading up on Fri. as well.Running the Qual on Sat.I just got off the phone with Jim Andrew and he said there were over 60 dogs in the open and 30 in the qual.Big numbers considering two of the Ontario pros are down east.Good luck to all.

I'm a setter person. Do you need to qualify before you can run in the open stake?

[blackstorm]

Case,
In the states if your clubs open the previous year is greater than a certain # I think 65 you can run a Limited which is limited to Qualified all age dogs. If the Limited the previous year still has high # of entries you run a special which are dogs that have been QAA within the past year. If you still have high entry #'s you would then run a restricted which is for dogs that have placed in an All age stake. Most of the limiteds this year had over 70 dogs in them and I am only QAA in Canada.

Dennis,
I tried to reach my son at his summer camp but have not heard back from him yet. He is not scheduled to be back home until Saturday. I will let you know before I leave on Friday.

Congrats to everyone -- sounds like it was a good FT -- certainly sounds like Junior was a good stake -- wish I was running -- oh well, going to have to wait until Bancroft and Mountain Valley -- maybe Ottawa -- sure a lot of nice Junior dogs out there -- Margo's litter looking good -- and BabyDuck sounds like he's got a goer in his female
