Here's the Volunteer Sign-Up Sheet for our upcoming trial. The Trial Chair has optimistically (unrealistically?) signed up to run leashes for Intro, but may need help doing it with an arm in a sling. The Chief Course Builder is recovering from a pinched nerve and can't lift heavy things. We'd be grateful for extra help at this trial. Please sign up!

There are several options for pet-friendly hotels near our trials, but PLEASE do your research before booking! This offer is from the Country Inn & Suites in Conyers. If you decide to book there, keep the information below in case the staff is unaware of the offer. It might be an option for those with 3 dogs. Hopefully we don't have to remind our friends to be the best, quietest, most considerate dog-owners the hotel has ever had, even if you're not happy with your stay.

FROM THE COUNTRY INN & SUITES CONYERS:

I wanted to follow back up with you regarding lodging needs for your upcoming event (Circle of Friends Dog Agility) Sept 26-28.

I am sending you the reservation link that is an easy and efficient way for you and/or event attendees/participants to book rooms at the special rate we've negotiated with GIHP event organizers.

Reservation Link: http://www.choicehotels.com/ires/en-US/html/ArrivalInfo?hotel=GAD38&srp=LGIHP&pu=no

I know we have discussed special pet fees just for your event(s) previously so am sending that information along as well:
As a special consideration for GIHP event organizers and participants, we are pleased to offer the following pet fee structure:

A flat pet fee of $60 per room for 1–3 dogs, each weighing up to 100 pounds.

An additional $60 fee applies for each subsequent set of three dogs.
