Buschlite,
How far is it to the other grounds where the little males run? Was maybe wanting to see fifteens run also.

Aaron it is about 15 miles east of Iron belt wi. In Ironwood.

Thanks. Will lunch and refreshments be sold at that grounds?

You ask a lot of questions....

BuschBound,
Does my dog have to be AKC registered to run in this event? Also was wondering if there will be coffee served at both grounds, and if so will i tbe decaf or high test? Thanks in advance, Aaron.

Dave,
I was wondering if I can bring my UKC registered beagle and run him. He is 13 3/4" tall. Was hoping on getting him in the 13" male class. Any suggestions........
P.S. Hope this question doesn't raise any controverses.

Mr. Buschbound,
Will the club be having a raffle? Any big ticket items on the table?

I hate to ask questions too but will you guys be having hats and t-shirts for sale? Also, if you don't mind what sizes, colors, and styles will be available?

Thanks in advance!!!!
