Combined LGRA, NAWRA, ISWS at ZoiBoyz Ranch

On June 21 & June 22 the ZoiBoyz Ranch hosted a combined LGRA, NAWRA, and ISWS race meet. The weather was a bit misty on Saturday but if you had a windbreaker it was perfect for the hounds. Sunday got warm but not hot. The spring rains had the track in perfect condition. Last year I was watering the grounds twice a day to keep the track in decent shape. This year Mother Nature has been providing all the water necessary.
On both days the NAWRA meet, hosted by RMSW, met the requirements to have championship points awarded; 15 on Saturday and 17 on Sunday. The Silkens, hosted by ISWS, only had 3 on Saturday and zero on Sunday, but are hoping to draw in some from out of state at future events. The LGRA, hosted by CLCA, had 18 hounds on Saturday and 12 on Sunday. We were competing with one of Colorado Springs premier events of the year so I expect that some of the attendance loss was due to that.
No event is without some controversy. We had our's and it was voiced and revoiced on the list. There is no need to rehash any of it here.
All in all it was a good event.
Thank all who attended and worked so hard to make it a good meet.
I'll post all of the results on the ZoiBoyz Yahoo Group.
KC will have some photos to post.

Our scheduled events for July are:
18 July - Fun Run in coursing format
19 July - NAWRA and ISWS Race meet
