A Note About Premium Lists
Premium lists for the Stumptown Cluster (CTCA Roving) and the Combined Specialties (CRCTC) are mailed separately. You will want to consult both premium lists for accurate entry information for the Roving and Regional specialties - even when entering online.
The premium list for the earthdog tests will be posted online here, and on the CTCA events calendar. Unlike conformation events, gate (day-of) entries will be permitted for the earthdog tests, subject to entry closing times posted in the premium lists. Pre-entries are of course welcome; they typically offer a pre-entry discount and pre-entries are a considerable kindness to the event secretary.
