Banner Park is a lovely flat park on mowed grass with abundant paved parking.


The weather for this weekend was much better than our last 2 Fast CATs not nearly as windy and we had only 1 hour rain delay.  It took longer on Saturday to get ribbons and times out as we worked with a new secretary.  This improved much for Sunday.  The numbers and new titles are as follows:

35 dogs participated in Fun Runs.

We had 289 runs with 260 qualifiers

Thank you to the participants and volunteers that made this a successful event.

Scent Work Detective Trials July 31, 2022

Scent Work Detective Trials

There were two Scent Work Detective Trials held on Sunday July 31. 2022 at the Dowell Farm, in Glenwood, IA.

Both trials had 13 entries. Trial #1 had 2 passes, Trial #2 had 4 passes. Congratulations to each of the passing teams!

The Scent Work Detective Class offers an integrated search environment with an unknown number of hides in a variety of elements. The intent of the Detective Class is to emulate as closely as possible the work of a true detection dog.
