(for MS Excel):   Fee Calculator IMPORTANT NOTICE!!! If you provide a legible, functioning email address, you WILL receive a confirmation email within 7 days maximum of our receiving your entry (usually within 1-2 days).  Also be sure that you have whitelisted my email addresses and so that you can receive my emails.  If you do not receive an email, PLEASE contact me either by phone (304-488-2871) or email ASAP so we can make sure we received your entry.  Everyone will also receive a Final Confirmation letter at the time of entry closing.  PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE read and verify your entry information in one or both of these emails!!  Sending me corrections is NOT an inconvenience - it is a HUGE help, as last-minute (i.e. 2-3 days before the trial) corrections are a royal pain. Note that any day-of-trial corrections WILL require a $5 fee per dog that needs corrections, no exceptions!  This fee will apply regardless of who made the error, as there will have been plenty of time prior to the trial to check information. Some important highlights: FRIDAY is ALL 3 Classes, ALL Levels - not just Excellent-only! FAST Excellent & Open will follow JWW in Ring 2.  FAST Novice will follow STD in Ring 1.  Depending on the distribution of entries among levels, we may reallocate FAST by height &/or level between the judges to ensure the maximum number of entries will be allowed. This is a new site for our AKC trials!!  Indoors in soccer arenas on artificial turf!   Random Draw entry period opens:     8am Weds, Feb 4th 2009 Random Draw entry deadline:            4pm Weds, Feb 18th 2009 Final entry Closing date:                   4pm Tues, Mar 31st 2009 Pre-trial moveup Deadline:                6pm Monday, Apr 14th 2009
