Hi Everyone,
I have been getting questions asking if the judging schedule has been sent out. The schedule was emailed on May 15 in an email that included a lot of the trial information.

Emails about the trial will be coming from Secreterrier and will look like the attached email. Please check your inbox and junk/spam folder, and if you find the email in junk, mark it as “Not Junk” so future messages will come through properly. Several emails have already been sent this way.

If you cannot find the email, the judging schedule and trial information have also been uploaded to Secreterrier. You can log in, go to the event page, and view the available files here:

https://secreterrier.com/events/2570/about

If neither of these options works and you still cannot locate the judging schedule, please email me at [email protected].

Thank you,
Lesli
