How would one go about getting a copy of the WSHC rules?

keith has a book of the rules and thats what I read when I need to know the answer to a question. When you get to the trial just ask me and Im sure you can borrow someones, there might be one running around thats not claimed, not really sure. You might be able to "buy" one???? But thats a great question, we do need to have more of them out and about so people understand all the rules. Thanks for asking Josh

The water race finals was a big success, thank you to all who came out and supported our club and a big thank you goes out to everyone who lent a hand, without the help and support we could not put on such a great event. The saturday BBQ was also a big hit, everyone enjoyed bbq chicken, corn on the cob, baked beans and homemade potato salad. The weather was very warm, and most of us ended up down at Lake Nawatzel for a refreshing dip in the warm water. Its sad to see the water races winding down, but now we need to gear up for next season! Hope to see you all out at the pond next spring for some great water races, please check out olympic tree hound associations facebook page (click the link on my signature) and check out the great pictures from the weekend-thanks for a great season you all! Happy hunting
