Trial is closed. Confirmations have been sent out. If you did not receive one please emaileme at lmsphd@gmail.com
Thanks for entering the TNT trial on Dec 27 and 28th in Dillsburg PA.
Please check over your confirmation carefully. NO CHANGES WILL ME BADE AT THE TRIAL. In addition to checking your classes, levels and jump height and all other information,
please check your dog’s NADAC registration number. NADAC uses your dogs registration number to track points, so it is imperative that the correct number is listed on your confirmation, the results posted at the trial and the results sent to you after the trial. You should report any errors to the Trial Secretary immediately.
I will make changes until Monday December 22nd. After that, no changes will be made.
NADAC no longer hand checks for discrepancies in the records we send them at the end of the trial. Instead, they post the trial results to the files section of the NADACAgility@yahoogroups.com.
The trial results will remain on the list for at least thirty (30) days. Please accept the responsibility to review those results, and check that your registration number and qualifying points,
as reported by the club, are correct. You can join the NADAC Agility list and set your settings to “no mail”. You’ll be able to view trial results and find discrepancies (if any) without receiving list mail.
If there are any problems, email me first at lmsphd@gmail.com.
