Woot!

The teams all did great, the booth looked great, MNDDC rocked the expo!

Special props to Abby for announcing while playing. Good stuff.

What a way to launch the 2010 season!

MNDDC ROCKED the pet expo!!! I am so proud to be part of this group. I heard so many great things said about the disc dog show. As usual with this group there are way too many people to thank for their hard work in putting this together and pulling it off. I hope everyone can just take a moment and think about the number of people the we entertained this weekend. And in the end WE had some of the LARGEST crowds, some of THE BEST DOGS and best SUPPORT TEAM of any performance groups there. You guys ROCK!!!!

Hey Guys,
Just made it home, dogs are tired...except presto, he is runnin around like a mad man. Anyway, Everyone did a great job this weekend. I wanted to thank everyone for supporting me and andrew trying out some new stuff, and thanks for those who volunteered to help with the weave pole race. I think everyone did a stellar job, it was a little weird without JG and Roo running the show, I think we all did good, thanks again guys!!

Rocket & Jack are ready to go again...not! Both are pooped out still this morning; as are the two of us. Everybody worked as a team to get this together & I'm proud of each & every one of you! And your ROCKSTAR dogs! We had quite a number of flyball friends who have never seen Rocket/Jack perform much less watched a disc show. They were amazed and were very impressed at our professionalism & bought quite a large # of JAWZ!! Thanks Abby & Andrew for setting up the flow of the show. Austin & Sidney's help of collecting discs made it easy to keep the show flowing. Kudos to Paul & Brian for helping out the other entertainment while they should have been resting:) & then going out & giving a great performances! Denise did a good job of announcing & to booth volunteers (Emily, Cathy, Michelle, Shelley, Denise, Jen, Clara, Tania & everyone who stepped in for breaks) did a wonderful job of educating & selling merch. This was the first BIG event for both Sean & Terry & ROCKED it! Bring on summer!!

Thank you everyone for letting Dougal, Fergus, and I be a part of this great show. Thanks for all the tips everyone gave me, especially Brian, Andrew, and Tania. YOU GUYS ARE GREAT, and when I talked to people at 'Meet and Greet', I always told them how wonderful EVERYONE in the group has been to a 'newbie'! :D Thanks also for the Disc work out between shows, I haven't had that sort of a workout for a while, and it was great! :D (I'm pretty tired and sore today, and it feels good!) :lol: Dougal and Fergus are two happy dogs, also!

Wow, what a weekend! I will echo everyone's comments that I think we did a great job of pulling together and putting on some great shows. We had great crowds for the most part and from what I saw, most people stayed until the end. Considering everything, I think we all did an awesome job!!! =-!!! =-!!!

Did anyone leave/forget a bag with a couple sheets in it where we had the popups? I came back in after taking a load of stuff to the truck and no one was around, wasnt sure if anyone was coming back for it or not, looked like everyone else had left, so I grabbed the bag. Let me know if they are yours so I can get them back to ya.

Just got back from agility class. My instructor was at the pet expo on Sunday and took in one of our shows. She really enjoyed it, thought it moved along quickly and kept the audience's attention. Great job!

Just got home. Before I pass out as all my dogs have done, I just wanted to say that you all did an awesome job!! But I didn't expect any less, despite any obstacles that stood in our way. Good work everyone.
