2012 Regional Trial

Picture
AZ Regional 2012 was once again held in the cool
weather & pines in Northern Arizona. The regional was delayed again due to wild fires running rampant throughout Arizona. The two day event had dogs finding birds and handlers doing their part and ensuring the birds were bagged.  Day Ones winners were: 1st Butch-Patty Horn Owner, Rod Horn Handler, 2nd Emma-John Trout  Owner/Handler,
3rdDru-Harleigh Horn Owner, Rod Horn Handler.  This year’s regional had  one new participant to NSTRA who with his beautiful young female pointer ended up in the runner up spot; CJ Hamilton and Fancy.  Fancy recently had a litter of pups.  Prior to the regional Fancy had only
competed in two NSTRA trials in which one  she had placed, Congratulations to CJ. The big winner of this year’s regional was Grimmy owned by Mrs.  Rocco Petrocco and handled by Mr. Rocco Petrocco.  Grimmy recently championed out while trialing in Utah and has been on fire. This handsome setter is a constant companion to the Petroccos’ and goes to work with Rocco daily and spends the evenings in the house; outstanding job Rocco we are all looking forward to Grimmy’s continued success this upcoming year. The  remaining top six were as follows: 2nd Runner Up Butch-Patty Horn Owner,  Rod Horn Handler, 3rd Runner Up Yotie-Owner/Handler Arlette Hennessey, 4th Runner Up Max-Owner/Handler Brian Rebello, 5th Runner Up Ponoche -Suzanne Kleinfeld, Owner, Bob Henson Handler. The regional trial was judged by Ron Horn& Matt Tanner both gentlemen did an outstanding job; a big thanks to  both of them. Steve Crabb graciously volunteered to bird plant and kept the trial running smoothly, thanks again for planting Steve and  for your past dedication to the treasurer position. 
 

We had a repeat for the region Hi-point, Henson’s Desert Catfish he ran away with this award easily this year. Bob
Henson and Catfish were recognized at our Regions get together.  Congratulations to Bob  & Catty. During the get together ballots were  counted and new board members were selected; Congratulations to all that  volunteered for these
positions.

Sept Labor Day Trial 2011

Well another fun filled weekend Thanks to those that judged specially Rocco and Matt neither one would ride so they Walked all day judging our dogs Thankfully for them there was only 12 braces to judge as when they were done they had the blisters and sore feet to go with the sacrifice they did to make this trial go off. Also another Big Thank you to Rocco for donating his Judging services.
Ginger and Moms Lunches were Great. They donated the food for this first occasion to get the ball rolling So for $5.00 a meal the proceeds going to the AZNSTRA Club. I sure hope it becomes a new Tradition to our Club and hosting lunches It brought people together and made the trial more fun makes it much easier to have some people in charge of the lunches and Ginger and Mom have offered to do this. So for this to work from now on when sending in entries please include if you and hopefully your family will be joining the Lunches so They know how much to prepare for the weekend trial.

AZ Regional Trial 2011

2011 Regional Trial meeting and gathering

Brian Brought up that we raise the Regional Trial cost to 65.00 to help cover cst and be able to build up the account so that we can have the ability to host more things from trials to gatherings and maintain the trailer and other AZNSTRA Items we have....Everyone was in agreement Rocco Brought up an idea which would save AZNSTRA money at the trials where a porta potty is required right now Sandoval charges us just over 100.00 a day. Rocco could purchase one for approx 150.00 have this fixed to a trailer. It could be stored at his yard and his service that comes to the yard would charge 25.00 to clean it. This would require us to haul back and forth but would be a considerable savings over the course of a year.

Also this new website was brought forward as Arlette found a way to save the club money for our website. The benefits to this site is those officers who would like can also have access to edit update and add  information as needed. This should help us stay more current.

Ballots were tallied  Brian Rebello President , Mike Kitchens Vice President,  Arlette Hennessey Secretary Steve Crabb Treasuer  Board Members Ron Horn, Rocco Petrocco, Randy Dombrowski, John Trout Jr.

Thank You Rocco Petrocco, Bob Henson and Ray Taffora for the Dinner and to everyone that brought a side dishes I don't think there was any one that walked away hungry.

This year we had a Calcutta for the part to of eliminations this brought in over 100 dollars for the club.

On our Items donated to AZNSTRA We Would also Like to Thank
