GENERAL INFORMATION

It's that time of year again!! Time for the Northern Nevada Brittany Club Spring Field Trial!This year's trial promises to be full of excitement, good food, good friends and good bird dogs.

This spring's trial will be held out at the Fernley Field Trial Grounds April 13-19. Spring weather in Nevada can be hot, cold, windy, rainy, SNOWY, etc. so be prepared, especially for chilly mornings! Last year we were lucky to have fairly nice weather, but you never know what Mother Nature is going to throw at us.

Lunches will be available on the grounds both days for a reasonable price. Please join us in the mornings for coffee, sweet rolls and fruit.

Camping will also be available on the grounds (but not really recommended for tents!) Please participate in keeping the grounds clean.
