Want to give a huge shout out to Lynn Johnson for judging her first official AHBA trial. We had a very busy weekend, six trials overall, HTD sheep and ducks, HRD Sheep and HTAD Sheep and ducks. Also want to give a huge thanks to Billy Anne Trent and Suzanne Schwab  for being back up judges for people needing additional scores to complete their class titles. We had a wild weekend with rain, thunder and lightning but it was a great weekend overall of trialing.

Also want to give a big congratulations to Debbie Powell and Bolt and Lynn Johnson and Rumor for completion of their AHBA Championship.

Thank you as always, my right hand gal, Shawna Garard for stock handling…not an easy job but that job is what makes the trial go smoothly. We got our steps in…right around 14 miles.

And thank you to Brian Crumpler for the awesome smoked pork, it was a wonderful dinner.

Now……on the planning November fun trial.

I would like to give a huge Thank You to Billy Anne Trent for judging our AHBA HTAD, HRD and HTAD trials, Suzanne Schwab for judging HTAD Ducks on Sunday and Lynn Johnson being the CD, for stepping in to also judge a duck run, your first official judging assignment. Thank You to Shawna Garard for being the Queen of stock handling, Ric and Eileen White for timing and scribing. Thank you to all the handler/dog teams, it was a pleasure watching you run your dogs, visiting and just enjoying the weekend with everyone. It truly takes a village to have a trial run smoothly. And Thank You to Brian Crumpler for all the pre and post trial work that needed to be done.
Looking forward to seeing you in September for another weekend of trialing.

I want to send out a HUGE Thank You to Suzanne Schwab for judging “My Friends and Ewe” AHBA trials, HTD, HTAD, and HRD. The trial weekend was delayed from September to Halloween weekend due to the poor air quality from the smoke, then last Friday we ended up getting over 6 inches of snow and I was on pins and needles hoping it would melt....thankfully Friday the last of the snow melted in the field and weather for the weekend could not have been any better. Thank you to Lynn Johnson, Suzanne and Billy Anne Trent for the course design for the HRD, we had fun planning it. Shawna Garard and Billy Anne for stock setting, the most important job of a trial next to the judge. The stock was set wonderfully. To our cook.... Lynn....great dinners and mulled apple cider...perfect for this Fall weather. To my Daughter in-law Lorie Y Stone for the awesome lunch on Sunday and for making the 1sts place awards of note cards, they were a hit. Thank you to Brian for being Mr. Fix-it when needed. And to YOU the competitors, because without you we would not have trials. Already looking forward to next year, going to shoot for 3 different trials for AHBA.
Stay safe and be well and until we meet up again.
