We are pleased to welcome you to DogZworth’s Nov 25-26, 2006 “We’ve Been Bizzy” NAFA flyball tournament.  Thank you for entering and good racing to everyone!  Our tournament will be held in Brampton , ON at the Fairgrounds- 12942 Heart Lake Rd.  Please CLEAN UP AFTER YOUR DOGS – clean up materials will be available at the entry door to the building.  Don’t forget to check out our raffle table!

Crating will be available inside and outside.  Please do not park, walk your dogs or crate beside the large soccer building.  We’re racing and crating in the middle building.

The Bizzy Awards:  DogZworth will be awarding the coveted “Bizzy Awards” this weekend.  We’re picking dogs that really shine- your very special racers!  They don't have to be the fastest out there.  We'll be picking the ones that catch our attention- for example a really awesome “must win” drive back, a super speedy box turn, or a dog and handler that just have a special something together.  We'll know them when we see them!  We did ask for nominations, but keep in mind that a dog doesn’t need to be nominated to earn a Bizzy.  All dogs racing this weekend will be considered for these special awards.

Where to eat: The DogZworth Diner will be open this weekend.  We will be serving snacks, beverages, breakfast and lunch.  The closest Tim Hortons restaurant is at the corner of Mayfield Rd and Hwy 10.  To get to Tim Hortons turn right out of the fairgrounds.  Go south on Heart Lake Rd , turn right on Mayfield.  The trip is approx 10 minutes.
