The Great Lakes Newfoundland Club will host two (2) draft tests on site in conjunction with the National Specialty. The first test will be on Monday, May 3, and the second test will be held on Tuesday, May 4.
Each test will be limited to twelve (12) handler/dog teams. Entries will be accepted beginning with March 1, 2010, postmarks. Entries received or postmarked prior to March 1, 2010, will be returned.
Entries will close at the home of the Test Secretary, Marie Acosta, at 5:00 p.m. on April 1, 2010. If the limit is exceeded by entries postmarked on the same day, a lottery will be used to determine the entrants to fill the available slots. Exhibitors may enter both tests, but priority will be given to accommodating all entrants in at least one of the tests. An alternate list will be maintained by order of postmark date, and a lottery will be used for postmarks that are the same date. Premium lists will be available on line at www.glnewfclub.org, or for additional information and a premium list contact Barbara Frey.

Post-show surveys have indicated the trend of more and more Specialty-goers arriving earlier in the week each year. This year we have planned a pre-show social event on Monday evening for all the “early birds.” You are invited to embark on an imaginary journey to Newfoundland and experience the heritage of the Island through its music and songs. Join old friends and new for dinner, drinks, and snacks in the “Black Dog Lounge” (a.k.a. the hotel’s Lorelei Lounge) on Monday evening, May 3, 7:00—11:00 p.m., and enjoy a program of Irish folk songs, sea chanteys, and “Newfoundland favorites” performed by the talented
