The GWPC of Utah
OPEN DERBY
Spring Hunt Test May 3rd to 10th was a busy week for the GWPCU. On Sunday the 3rd we held our Hunt and WaterTes~ and the following weekend our first Field Trial. Thanks to hard work, by club members, the Hunting Test ran very smoothly. In all 28 dogs were entered, including some newcomers, who seemed to enjoy all the action. As usual the Junior Test had the largest number of entries (16) with 11 receiving qualifying scores. The Seniors had 4 starters but unfortunately none of them made it though clean. The Master had a good showing with 8 entries and 2 qualifying scores. The Water test was a first for Utah and drew a large gallery of spectators, each dog received a round of applause regardless of how it performed The test was open to all breeds and we had some Brittany's and Shorthairs prove that they were up to the task. Out of the 9 dogs that were entered the following 6 passed: Riches Dottie JH Otto Von Twelve Gauge Waldrand Cascade Quest Jay Mars Cinas Dusty Diamond Ch Carrybrook Jesse James CDX SH Traveling Y Bolds Banko VRRK

GWPC of Utah Field Trial The Field Trial turned out to be just the right size for our new Club to manage with 59 entries. Wirehairs were well represented and had placements in every stake. We managed to get every thing done on Saturday except Open Limited Gun Dog and still have time for a steak and chicken barbecue. It was a good thing because Sunday the weather turned nasty with wind, hail. snow and rain. Linda Sander, Mary Lou Linge and Regan Bune came up from Las Vegas and Mike Hemphill and Rocky Gilleard made the trip from the northwest to help make the Trial a success. An extra special note of thanks goes to Rocky who took over the job of line Marshall and kept every thing running smoothly. And extra extra thanks to our Judges for outstanding job and to Tom Dangerfield for all the hard work. A.K.e. representative Darrell Poodry was on hand for both days of the Trial and we appreciated his advice and recommendations. AMATEUR

Fort Detroit Walking Field Trial May 23, 1998 Highland Recreation Area This Saturday before Memorial Day brought great weather for the club's annual walking field trial (for a change!). We had one of - if not the - highest entries we ever had. There was actually a waiting list to get in! We thought it rather funny, because it was difficult finding judges because most said they were going out of town or were busy for the holiday. There was obviously many dog trialers without other plans. It was a very busy day with a tight schedule and without everyone Many thanks, as always, goes to our judges: Ross VanDerBos, Kathleen Yates, Ed Tucker, Bill Richardson, Barry Peterson, Wayne Warners. and Dean Nelson. Thanks for pitching in and being flexible for our tight schedule' They kept things moving and were real troopers. The results of the field trial are as follows: Amateur Limited GunDog I.
