so I haven't seen links for rally or obedience streaming..... do you have a link?
have watched some of the agility already...
 
hope that I make it home in time to see the finals.
was looking for you today but didn't see you....
did you have to bring your own white shirt and black pants? - that seemed to be the steward uniform in the obedience rings
 
Editing to say I was trilled that 5th place went to Sheltie team!!! AND LOST MY ORIGINAL REPLY!!!!

The stewards were given a T-shirt, a rally and obedience pin (if you worked both), a catalog, free lunch and an insulated bag with NOC and AKC logo... :)

As i massage my sore legs (they cramped so much!!!) that was not nearly as nice as the whole experience was. I sure hope this is not the only Rally - and National Obedience Championship that I will be able to participate (in some capacity!) but if it is, it was so so so worth it...

C'mere Justus, let's try busting the move I saw Sandra Ladwig's super cute dog do... :)

I didn't on Friday, I thought I was going to be tourist but was asked to work group two for Judge Ted McCall in RAE ring.. I was the timer, super cute in my souvenir T shirt and jeans. :p

I did on Saturday and Sunday! New white shirt, dress pants and I machine washed my tennis shoes. Even wore makeup and jewelry!!!! :)
On Saturday I stewarded Ring 1 with John Cox. The exercises in that ring were Directed Jumping and Retrieve on Flat. On Sunday morning I stewarded Ring 3 (the live streamed ring) with Judge John Cox. This time I had Directed Retrieve and Heeling Fig 8 post duties. I busted my butt dropping and picking up gloves for 50 teams!!! I checked the live stream, I did good. :D Did not trip, step on a tail or mow the exhibitors down. :) :) :) Although there was a dog or two I wanted to dognap!!!!

sounds like an awesome experience and I am sure that they were glad to have an experienced person volunteer as a ring steward.
I did see some Figure 8s on Sunday so that might have been you......:pop
The only RAE I saw on Friday appeared to be the last group as they had the awards in that ring later.
had some friends over in the agility rings- sounded like lots of shopping was accomplished.
I saw the sheltie in the runoffs Sunday afternoon- was hoping that it would do good.
I was also rooting for Victory as she used to live in Mobile- my biggest training regret that I didn't take an obedience class from her when she was teaching one at one of the local pet stores:gaah
