The building is located at 9911 East 63rd Street in Raytown MO. It is heated and air-conditioned. Chairs are available or bring your own. Limited crating space is available. Show Prep Classes are used to simulate a trial but in a more relaxed atmosphere. Treats, toys, additional commands, and/or praise are allowed. When time permits, handlers may repeat exercises, parts of exercises, or rally stations.
OBEDIENCE: Utility begins at 8:00 or 8:30, followed by Open, Novice, and Beginner Novice.
The cost to enter is $7.00 for non-members and $6.00 for members.
Entry Deadline:
12:00 Noon on Wednesday before Show Prep weekend. This includes a change from one class to a different class. All participants MUST sign the club waiver when they enter the building.
