While this is a GREAT response from 18 Organizations (so far) this year, Rosters were submitted from twenty-six Organizations last year, so there may be some procrastinators still out there.
🐾😎🐾
So, if you do not see your Organization listed above, PLEASE reach out to your Team(s) Organizer and ask them to make the request for the online Roster Submittal Form!
Because this year,
There is a NEW PROCESS for submitting Rosters!
Team Organizers/Captains will need to visit this following web link to request a Roster Submittal Form before being able to Submit a Roster:
or
This will allow Team Organizers/Captains to request a Roster Submittal Form for your Organization/Sponsor. Once the request is received and reviewed, you will receive an email (to the email address provided in the form) with a link for Roster Submittal. Every Organization that submits this form will receive their own custom roster link. Even if you are unsure of your Organization's commitment to DACOF 2025 at this time, it is recommended to submit a roster for your Organization, in the chance that the Organization is able to participate.
There should be some nexus (connection, relationship, bond) between the handlers listed on a Roster. This nexus could be: the Handlers belong to the same Dog Club or Organization; train together; have a shared dog breed; or share some other material and identifiable commonality.
Also, although not everyone listed on a Roster is required to be on the eventual DACOF Team, names cannot be added to the Roster after the Roster Deadline. For further information please go to our web site: dacof.com / Send a Team tab / How to Participate drop down.
Submit your pictures of the Tire Jump, the 2025 Obstacle for DACOF Pins & T-Shirt by Sunday February 23, 2025!
Team Dog-On-It Dynamos, our winning group from DACOF 2024 has chosen the Tire Jump as their obstacle of choice for the DACOF 2025 Pin and T-Shirt. DACOF Members may submit pictures they would like to be considered as the “Model” for this year’s design to Bill at:
!!! PLEASE REMEMBER !!!
Any pictures being submitted to us for consideration must have the photographer’s permission! Additionally, for us to be able to work with the picture, the file size of the picture must be 1MB in size at a minimum.
Nicky with Pix ‘n Pages has once again graciously provided permission for any Pix ‘n Pages photos to be submitted for consideration. Additionally, Rich Knecht from Rich Knecht Photography and Mallory Bernard from MB Photography have granted permission for the use of any photos they have taken, as long as the submitted pictures are purchased and paid copies of their photographs.
Photographs from any other photographer will require the photographer’s release before the picture is considered as a submission to the Board.
We will only accept Tire Picture submissions through Sunday February 23rd, so please send us your pictures soon!
Lastly for this notice, we would like to encourage everyone to visit the DACOF web page,
to learn about all things DACOF!
Specifically, the "Send a Team" tab which has much valuable information that EVERYONE should review!
We have also added an “Updates” tab that will be archiving all DACOF messages chronologically. This has been a request from our Members, because sometimes an email can get lost, or the chronological order of the Facebook Messages can change when someone comments on an “older” Facebook post, moving it to a higher position in the Facebook posts, and out of chronological order. We know this will help our Members looking for any missed messages/postings.
We look forward to receiving any remaining Roster Requests and Completed Rosters by this Friday, and Members’ favorite pictures of the Tire by Sunday.
Thanks!
Bill, Kathy, Jen, Erica & Ashley
