Notes From the Field Trial Chair People:

**The grounds are not open to vehicular traffic until training day, December 5th per the State of Missouri permit that we have in place. There are 22 parking areas around the conservation area that you can walk from into various covers and water. The gate may be open at the HQ entrance but that is only for going to their office.

No birds of any kind can be used for training until training day and then it is restricted to NCC supplied birds in your training area.

Thanks for your cooperation

**Recommended for judges/handlers and gunners to bring a pair of chaps with them to the Championship.

**If you have multiple dogs, you can bring a UTV/ATV to the grounds but it must always stay on the established roads or two tracks,
   they will not be allowed on the courses and must not be left at end of courses. 
   The two tracks usually give good access to the courses. 
   There will be a dog shuttle trailer available on the centerline for intermittent and very temporary use by handlers. 
   The Committee will also have two ATV’s with crates for “emergency” use if handlers get in a bind with multiple dogs at the far end of a course.
