1. ALL GATES MUST BE KEPT CLOSED TO KEEP CATTLE INSIDE THE FIELDS. Mr. Kinzalow emphasized this is the most important rule. If this rule is broken, we WILL lose the farm.

2. NO DRIVING IN FIELDS. Park around the edge of the fields. There are gravel driveways around both ponds. Park along either side of the driveways. ATV’s with trailers may be use to haul equipment but stay close to edges of fields.

3. DO NOT TRAIN IN THE HAY FIELDS.

TRAINING AT THE KINZALOW FARM

New members are invited to attend training sessions to participate or watch. An organized training group will be set up at least twice a month (weather permitting) to learn and practice the basics of the AKC Hunt Tests. Advanced training groups may train on their own in separate fields. E-mail notices to all members will announce dates of organized training groups. Bring your retriever, a chair, water, training gear and join the fun.
