<p>Gretchen has set up the doodle with a three way time split for each day: <a href="http://www.doodle.com/cd5ynp6kkccg6md7#table" target="_blank">http://www.doodle.com/cd5ynp6kkccg6md7#table</a>.  If you will tickmark the time frame during which you think you will arrive, that would be great.  I know that there are some participants who are retired and might prefer to come and practice in the late afternoon.  For those of you who can&#8217;t come until later due to work constraints, I want to make sure that you not only get your two practices, but that there&#8217;s time to work on any individual problems dogs might be having. The doodle is collapsed, in that only part of it is apparent.  Click on the accordian folds in the middle of it and the doodle will unfold in its entirety.</p>
<p>Questions, or the doodle doesn&#8217;t work for you, <a href="mailto:aumbre@earthlink.net">drop me an e-mail</a>.   At this point, I&#8217;m not sure about having a weekend practice.  There are multiple events every weekend.  If I can make a weekend work, I will let everybody know via e-mail a couple of days prior.</p>
<p>Practices will be held at the <a href="http://www.cascadefamilyflyers.com/location.html" target="_blank">Cascade Family Fliers</a> field south of Snohomish.  One last thing, my phone number is 425-293-3776.  <strong>Please don’t use the number on the Cascade Family Fliers website.</strong> That goes directly to the field owner, Mark.  I’m quite active on my computer.  If you <a href="mailto:aumbre@earthlink.net">e-mail me</a> with questions, almost for sure, I will be back to you within a day if not sooner.</p>
