CSAR 2026 - Hosted by Uwharrie Search Dogs

05/08/2026

When someone learns you have invited a level of insanity into your life such as planning CSAR, it’s not uncommon for them to offer help.

But then there are some people that SHOW UP big time!!!

Thank you Alisa King for all your hard work making phone calls, submitting applications, and driving almost 3 hours away (twice) to go visit potential training locations. We can’t do this without support and love that other NC teams are stepping up.

SciK9 (4 TADD bottles)
Musher’s Secret

K9-Ops (Moki rope ball & firehouse tug)
Bass Pro Shop (2 life vests)

Did you know you can register for a waitlist slot and your card will not be charged?

We are happy to share that 8 of our CSAR 2026 classes are completely FULL, some with a waitlist!

If you have been on the fence because your first pick was full, here's your sign to go ahead and register. If someone cancels, or we have enough to open another class, we will contact you directly by phone to ask if you are still interested. Only after you confirm, we will process your registration and your card will be charged. There's no risk, so why not?!

Seminar Announcement!!!

Following a unanimous class vote, the Intermediate Land HRD class will swap the standard field class training on Monday and Wednesday with indoor classroom quilting. It will be a working class and all supplies will be provided. Your dogs can be crated next to you while you quilt. We would like to thank our instructors, Christi and Diana, for their flexibility so we could accommodate their students' request.

We are pending 2 more votes, but it looks like the Urban Trailing class will take the Tuesday and Thursday classroom days for quilting. Once confirmed, we will notify those registered directly.

Thank you Todd for such a great idea for your class this year!

Attention Campers!

Although we do have room for additional car and tent campers onsite, we sold out of onsite RV spots.
Our friends at Denton Farm Park (only 12 miles away) have plenty of RV spots!

Camping at Denton Farm Park:
$45 per night 30 amp
$55 per night 50 amp
There are also a few sewer sites that would be an additional $10 per night (30 amp) only.

Attention Members!!!!!

You have until 12pm CST/ 1pm EST today (Friday March 6) to register for a class prior to opening registration to everyone tomorrow.

Remember, if your first choice class is full, get on the waitlist. The waitlist registrants are offered slots as they come available in the order when they registered. We also assess if additional classes and instructors can be added by the number on the waitlist!

We are excited to welcome you to The Uwharries this October!
