Do you volunteer to help out at agility trials? I hope you do. If not, give it a try, it's fun! It let's you experience another level of camardiity with your fellow exhibitors and clubs really appreciate the help. The more, the merrier!

Volunteers to help set bars, leash runners and course setters are the unsung heros of trials. By volunteering to help out in a couple of classes a day, it frees up others to walk their dogs and makes it more enjoyable for everyone. The time goes by faster, too!

I enjoy bar setting. It's the best seat in the house to watch dogs run and observe handling techniques. I can scribe, too, which is very helpful to the club members, but you must keep your eye on the judge and I SO want to watch the dogs!

Most clubs around here have a volunteer sheet sent with the premium list so you can sign up at the same time you send in your entries. They also have a sign up board where you can help fill in or give someone else a break.

Great way to meet nice folks and create goodwill.
