(......to quote Ronnie James

)
A BIG THANKS to everyone who entered dogs at our UKC events and put us at or near the top on UKC's lists!
#1 Water Race club in the entire country!
#2 Field Trial club in the country! (Go Utah!)
#6 Bench Show Club in the country, and the only one in the West on that list!
And I believe we've also got the 2nd highest average Nite Hunt entries of all the western states (Go Colorado)!
If anyone has any doubt about houndsmen in any of the western states not being interested in the UKC events......THINK AGAIN!

That is really cool.. I was a bit surprised.. Not that the Nor- Cal doesn't ROCK

but didn't think we would have the numbers out west to compete with everybody back east...

I really enjoy these rankings because it lets everyone see what clubs around the country are doing at their "own" events.
Many of us in the west have gone to big events back east, but very few people from back there ever come out to the west. I've gotten the "yeah right" attitude many times when telling people in "coonhoundville USA" that we draw respectable numbers out here at many of the western events. Now there's proof! Unfortunately we have the issue of major distance between our clubs out here.

(BTW Melanie, I got to cruise the big metropolis of Butte Falls this past weekend and eat twice in one day at the Cafe! LOL)

BF is impressive isn't it

The Cafe is the best eating around though LOL. If it was the cafe next to our itty bitty little fire station.. The other one is.. ehh, okay...

Were you at the AKC show at Indian Mary Park this past weekend?

Yep.. I figured coonhound central would have more numbers then they do..

Yep, brought my B&T up. She took the major on Sat and then choked on Sun. Too busy bait-diving!
