We had hoped to use the "North field" at Chattahoochee Hills Farm (where our trials were held last March) this weekend, and it had been drying out nicely, but was not quite there yet when we walked it recently. The rain of today and tomorrow has now made the decision for us, so we will be using another field at the Farm -- the field where last December's Christmas Cup was held.
To get there, continue to follow the directions in the program,but do NOT turn onto Brown's Lake Road from Cedar Grove Road. You will see a sign at that intersection which says "Field Trial Moved" and points south on Cedar Grove Rd. So instead of turning onto Brown's Lake Rd., continue on Cedar Grove Rd., heading South and following the yellow "Field Trial" signs. After it crosses its intersection with Rivertown Rd.,Cedar Grove Rd. becomes Campbellton Redwine Rd. After you pass the Rivertown Rd. intersection, you will go about 1.3 miles and will see old stone columns on the left -- this is the entrance to the field. The field is separated from the road by hogwire fence.
For those who want to use a GPS device or Mapquest, the approximate address of the field is 5518 Campbellton Redwine Rd., Fairburn, GA.
As those of you who attended the Christmas Cup can attest, this is a nice big field that allows for open, galloping course plans and affords excellent views of the dogs on course. We still plan to run drag lure if the ground is not too soft for the restringing vehicle.
The weather forecast for the weekend is very nice -- partly sunny and temps in the low 60s both days.
The program can be found in the Documents section here, at the SEGC Web site at www.greyhoundadoption.org and at www.toddbirchfield.com
Join us for the excitement of brace elimination running and the greater objectivity of point tally scoring, with all the amenities of SEGC trials. It will be a weekend of good sport ! |

SEGC has added a fourth weekend to its 2009 lure coursing calendar to offer more opportunities to those who like to test their dogs on big fields and long galloping course plans. On December 19 and 20 we will return to beautiful
Chattahoochee Hills Farm near Fairburn, Georgia, just south of Atlanta. In keeping with our new tradition of offering a variety of running and scoring formats, we will hold an ASFA trial on Saturday and a NLCC trial on Sunday.
So,if you're tired of the "same old, same old," come experience the difference
with SEGC:
* A different running and scoring format each day -- scored braces on Saturday,and the greater objectivity afforded by brace elimination with point tally scoring in the NLCC meeting on Sunday;
* A new and different big field at Chattahoochee Hills Farm;
*DRAG lure each day -- greater safety for our dogs + more lively lure action =better sport;
*On Sunday at the NLCC trial, cash prizes for the winners of the unified Open stake, a bottle of bubbly for the runners-up, and ribbons and dog toys for all placements;
*On Sunday at the NLCC meeting, your dog can compete for Grand Field Champion, the toughest title in
lure coursing -- based on winning percentage, the gold standard of performance
evaluation;
*Run for the new perpetual trophy, the Christmas Cup, on Sunday, open to all BOB winners from the ASFA trial and all Open stakes winners from the NLCC meeting; *As at all NLCC meetings, Silken Windhounds, lurchers and longdogs are welcome and enjoy full eligibility
* The fabulous SEGC amenities and field lunches, fundraisers for Southeastern Greyhound Adoption;
* Judges will be Linda Garwacki and Todd Birchfield.
The NLCC event program for Sunday can be found in the Documents section of the Web site.
The NLCC program and the ASFA premium list can also be found at the SEGC Web site, www.greyhoundadoption.org, and at www.toddbirchfield.com
We hope you'll join us for two great days of sport !

The program for the lure meeting hosted by CHASE on Nov. 21 at Old Mill Farm in Cartersville, GA is now available in the NLCC Documents section. One revision: Due to an ASFA policy, we will be required to hold the NLCC meeting at the conclusion of the ASFA trial. The NLCC inspection will begin immediately after the ASFA trial awards ceremony, and the first brace will go to slips immediately upon the completion of the draw. We hope you'll enjoy us for an afternoon of good sport ! |
