Proposal

2005 National Open Championship

With Amendments

Dates: Field Trial to begin on Fridav Nov. 4th and continue until
conclusion. (The proposed Amateur date: Nov, 14th through conclusion.
This will give plenty of travel time before the Thanksgiving Holiday.

Location: North of Ogden Utah in the Tremonton, Ogden and Logan areas,
The headquarters will be located in Ogden which is approximately 45
minutes north of Salt Lake City.
    We have, with the help of Jerry Livingston also secured grounds in
Southern Idaho along with additional grounds in the Logan, Sherwood
hills, Ogden (Willard Bay Dog Training area, where the cover is currently
thick and 3 feet tall) and surrounding areas in Utah.  We have sponsored 3
National Championships in Utah so we will put on a well run trial.  I will
personally guarantee you will not be disappointed with the
accommodations, organization, or the GROUNDS!  We will be watching
the cover very closely through out the year to be sure the areas we pick will
beat your expectations.  I promise this cover will not e an issue.
    We have three bird suppliers lined up.  We are currently using Bill
Petersen from Mt. Home, Idaho.  He produces a medium to small bird with
great flying abliity, straight up and then out, very fast birds.  The cost will
be about $7.50 per bird.  we will experiment with birds from all three
suppliers before making a decision. 


The Field Trial area includes rolling hills and flatlands covered with knee to
waist high natural CRP grasses.  Mother Nature has been very good to us the
past few years and the cover is outstanding.  All indications lead to another
great year for cover.  We currently have TEN different areas set aside for us
with approximately THREE thousand acres available.  We have worked
very hard to insure that no one will be disappointed with the cover or the
beautiful scenery.  Those of you that attended our Fall Trial this year were
witness to the outstanding grounds that we will be providing.  We are
dedicated to provide you the best National Championship Trial Ever. 

Headquarters:  Comfort Suites, Ogden, Utah.  Located right off of 1-15 on
the 21st street exit.  This is a very nice facility, every room is a suite, Holiday
Inn Express is located next door.  All banquets, Cocktail events and
meetings will be on location at the headquarters.
