Our judge Maureen Burke brought some challenging courses, but Team PZ looked great out there. Chances, in particular was a real doozie. Team after team bit the dust on a really hard course. In the end only Paula and Trae were able to make it through and they made it look EASY! Congrats to an awesome pair.
As usual Suz was working hard keeping everyone fed and happy with the Roadkill Cafe. Her breakfast sandwiches are to die for and the service is top notch! Proceeds from the RKC go toward our equipment fund and we are over halfway to a new set of 24" weaves so thanks everyone who contributed!
The Platinum Speed Star is an award that prizes speed and accuracy, you need to have 20 Regular runs with a 100+ DRI, and 10 in Jumpers, and also have 10 Chances. These teams are the embodiment of the skills that make NADAC such a great venue. We are very proud to have TEN teams in PAWZAZZ to have achieved this feat!! Many of them have multiple Speed Stars to their credit. Tebi was nice enough to purchase some beautiful ribbons to mark their achievement. Congratulations to:
