"Whats good for the dog sport is good for me"
~ Jerry Leitch
Current Members should still submit an Annual Membership Application if they need to update their information. If not then no need to reapply. Please be sure to review the general rules of the property below.
Please note that there are dates when clubs have reserved the grounds. Please be courteous of the clubs and do not train on the property while an event is going on unless you are attending.

Event Camping: Event camping is permitted without charge, the day prior to, during and after a scheduled event.
Non-event related camping: Is allowed with prior approved arrangements for current members or for special circumstances. The Evergreen State Fairgrounds has facilities nearby, no facilities are provided on site. Annual Members camp for free but all are subject to scheduling approval.
Master Amateur National: Note that this year (2024) in June during the Master Amateur Retriever Club event we will have camping on the property. For this event specifically we will have reduced daily camping rates of $15 a day for current 2023 members. All others will be $25 a day.
Guests: Current members shall accompany guests at all times. Guests are required to register with the use of this form and payment of $15.00 per day per household. Guests must also sign a Release of Liability. Use of the property is not permitted until these conditions are met.
Display Vehicle Hang Tag: Please display your vehicle hang tag on your rear view mirror or dash board when on the property. Replacement or additional hang tags are $5 each.
Property Use: Limited to the intentional and purposeful training of dogs for hunting, sport, testing, performance or competition. Additional use may be approved on a case by case basis at our discretion.
Finding an Area to Train: On the property if an area is in use it is a suggested best practice to check in with the group or individual to inquire when they will be done and suggest an area where neither group will be in conflict.
Disposal of Birds: Not permitted on the grounds in any form.
Clean Up: After yourself and your dogs please. The dumpster next to the barn can be used for disposal of bagged dog refuse. Please do not use the port-o-potty for dog waste. Please pickup blind markers (ribbon) when not in use, exceptions to this could be plans to re-run the same blind the next day. Please be extremely careful with spent shotgun shells and trash in the fields. This is a big hindrance and safety issues for the farmers.
Reservation of Grounds: The grounds may be reserved for events. Please use the Training Grounds Event Form. A Event Release of Liability will need to be signed by all participants, observers and attendees, including current and past members and will be the responsibility of the club/organization to ensure all attendees have signed. Regular Membership use of the facility will be suspended during an event.
Banned Person(s): Existing bans will be upheld.
Live Shot: Please be sure to use only steel shot on the grounds. Observe proper safety at all times and ensure that homes/property/people, on and off the grounds will be unaffected. Remember to pick up used hulls.
Metal Stakes: The use of metal stakes or rebar is strictly prohibited on the property as these are a huge safety risk while mowing.
