2008 BORDER COLLIE NATIONAL SPECIALTY
October 13-19, 2008-Purina Farms-Gray Summit, Missouri
CAMPING/RV INFORMATION

Chair, Nancie Mages

 

Welcome to the 2008 Border Collie Nationals. As you have probably figured, we are going to have another overflow with RV parking.

We are very unhappy to inform you that Myra and Trent Westphal will not be handling the RV parking this year. It was so incredibly well organized last year that we are going to miss them very, very much.

Nor have we had any volunteers to step in and take over. Therefore, the Reserved Parking is just not going to happen.

Nevertheless, there are some rules that will be strictly enforced:

1. NO camping on the Upper Deck. Only campers that have been approved
by Purina farms may camp on the upper deck. The reason for this is because Purina has hay rides that use that upper deck and don't want motor homes parked there.

2. Please plan appropriately for your X-Pens. NO Additional space will be allowed to any camper.

3. With safety in mind, there will be NO parking on the grooming deck.  Exhibitors will be allowed 15 minutes to unload but we ask that everyone be courteous to one another and move along as quickly as possible. Also please power down at much as possible during the day when the Grooming tent is being used.

4. The only camping available for overflow or late arrivals will be on the gravel parking lot (Camping Overflow) North of the Conformation and Obedience rings. There is no electric, or water available. Or they may go to one of the local campgrounds to camp.

5. There will be absolutely NO DUMPING of gray or black water.  Violators will be subject to disciplinary action.

6. Septic Pumping is $40.00 for each time pumped. It will be on  Wednesday and Saturday. All payments must reach us the day before the pumping is scheduled. Payment for pumping is CASH only. No checks or credit cards accepted. After you have paid you will be given further instruction on what to do to ensure your RV is pumped.

7. At the present time Nancie Mages will be the "go to" person for RV parking and RV dumping. If you are smart (like a border collie) you will not phone her after 8:30 at night, or before 6am in the morning. Cell phone 630 222 7800.
