Andy took care of the hotel reservations and dinner reservations. He also helped stewarding both days. Nextstop isRalph Orlando. Ralph maintained the building both days. Cleaning,moving mats, setting up rings. He was able to keep up with this while also and during his dog in the trial. John and Dee Thibodeaux were two more members that were there both days stewarding and setting up on Friday. Dee was also entered and earned her UD title. Congratulations.

I would also like to acknowledge the following for all their help at the rings, Susan Armstrong, Robin Bowen, Joan Costello, Linda Campagna, Camille Camille N. Doehring, Susan Handy, Luci Seeley, Kristen Kristin Ozmun Sipus and Susan Wilkes. A trial of any kind cannot be put on without a family. These participants became a family by working together for the success of thistrial.
