Welcome Back To Pawso Robles!

We're looking forward to seeing ya'll March 5-6-7-8, 2010! Memories of last year's trial still ring sweet in our ears, and we're lookin' forward to celebratin' friendships old and new again this year. We've got great judges lined up, some familiar, some brand new! Git ready to enjoy BBQ cooked on site, terrific vendors, a wonderful Deb Harpur raffle, a tracking seminar with Sally Nesbitt, CGC, a CERF clinic, freestyle demos, and other fun...all after your clean, fast runs, of course! We're also addin' real trials for you obedience types on Sat./Sun. We heard some of you need help tirin' out your dogs, so we're tryin' to oblige.
We're returning to our beautiful trial site at Oak Canyon Park, and the ranch layout remains pretty much the same. RVers and other campers will again be in the Little Oaks field, obedience and rally will set up in our east field, and agility in the west field. Read on down for all the particulars!

Food, Fellowship and Fancy Lodgin'
One of the best things about our trial is the chance to take a meal with family and friends.  We'll be cookin' on site this year, and we invite you to join us for some good grub and gossip! Morning hospitality will be provided by our friendly folks, and lunches Fri./Sat./Sun/, and Fri./Sat. dinners can be pre-ordered. Get the skinny on the Fun Stuff! page.

RV and Exhibitor Parking
Pre-registered RVers and Tent Campers will park around back in our Little Oaks field, in assigned spaces. Water is available, but no hookups, sorry. Please see our Park Yer Rig page for details and a reservation form. Vendors and Committee members will also park as directed in this field. Exhibitors and others will park for free in our main gravel lot...no passes required this year! A limited number of Ranchhand Parking Passes will be available for sale to Exhibitors, allowing early set-up, and guaranteed, convenient parking in a set-aside area each day. Please see the Park Yer Rig page for details. We sold out on these last year, so order early!

Vendors and Raffles!
We're linin' up a passel of the best vendors ever, and will have links for many of them available on our Fun Stuff! page. If you're interested in being a Vendor, please contact our Vendor Coor. Marsha Yeager. Raffle Queen Deborah Harpur is already gathering lovely items large and small...if you have something you'd like to donate, please contact her directly. Whoohoo! What's a great trial without the chance to drop some cash and load up on stuff you need?

Where did we get the name Pawso Robles? Well, pardner, the real name of our trial site is Oak Canyon Park…la de da de da. We wanted somethin’ more colorful to describe this magical place, full of good folk and great dogs havin’ fun. Since “oaks” is “robles” in Spanish, Pawso Robles seemed to fit the bill!
