We will be hosting an ABRA sanktioned show September 21-23 2012. Please check this website often for updates. This is my first experience building any sort of website and I am sure that there are errors, but wanted to have a tool that would enable you to check for updates and help us spread the word about the show. We took a couple years off of hosting shows and are excited to be back at it. We will not market the biggest or best but what we will promise you is a quality show and a great time. We are excited to be working with the ABRA for the first time and feel that 2012 will be a year of unity and growth for our breed. We are excited to be part of that and hope you will join us. I have put all of the pertinent information you will need on the home page of this site such as the schedule of events and events being offered. There are many tabs that will offer you other information you will need. We encourage you to use the blog to get geared up for the show and welcome POSITIVE feedback :)
