The Flyball MAINEiacs Go Green Dogs tournament was a complete success!  I was unable to do much of anything for set-up on Friday or during the tournament on Saturday. Out of commission with what turned out to be Sciatica.  This awesome team never missed a beat though.  Members jumped in anywhere and everywhere they were needed!!  Huge thanks to Alyson for walking my dogs all day and running Shilo!  Thanks to Alicia and Steph for running Bounce...my little "momma's boy."

The NAFA lights were a disaster but once we got them figured out racing ran smooth for the rest of the day.  All the teams adjusted quickly to the short runback area and aside from so less than perfect starts everyone was very happy with the space.  Cindy did a great job judging with no relief judge in sight!  Thank you to Cindy and WW for being such troopers!!

Thank you MAINEiacs for being such an awesome group of people!  You make me very proud!!

Picture a group of happy flyballers sitting around a table at McSeagulls in Boothbay Harbor enjoying good food and good drinks...maybe the drinks were too good?!  We just wrapped up our November tournament and were having a celebratory dinner when someone joked "we should have a one-dayer in January" and no one argued. No one thought "that's crazy" or "no way" we just said "okay."

So here we are just 4 days away from our first tournament in Portland, ME!  It should be an interesting day.  NO FRILLS which is new for us, one day vs two and a smaller racing area then the region is used to having.  I can't wait to see how it goes. 

I'm very excited for all of our GREEN dogs to get out and do some warm-ups and hopefully some racing!
