Run-Thru & Crating Update

Hello DACOF Members!

As we head into the weekend, excitement continues to build as DACOF 2026 is now less than a week away!

🏕️ Tentative Crating Assignments

The Tentative Crating Assignments have been completed by PK and Amanda from DTC of St. Pete and are attached to this message. They have also been posted on the DACOF website.

We refer to these assignments as "Tentative" because we never know what changes may have been made at the Silver Spurs Arena from year to year, and available crating space can occasionally be affected by those changes.

The crating diagrams and information can be found at:

DACOF Website:DACOF.com → Send a Team → Site Maps → Scroll to the bottom of the page

Or directly at:https://www.dacof.com/site-maps

👏 Please join us in giving a huge THANK YOU to PK and Amanda for all of their hard work. They have spent many hours trying to accommodate everyone's requests while balancing the varying numbers of dogs and handlers being brought by each organization this year.

📦 Crating Area Reminders

As mentioned in the DACOF Notes, although PK, Amanda, and members of DTC of St. Pete will be marking the crating spaces on Thursday:

🚫 Please do NOT move crates, chairs, tables, or personal belongings into any crating area until all spaces have been taped and finalized.

Once members of your organization have located your designated crating area and begin setting up:

✅ Please remove the blue painter's tape from the floor that marks your crating space.

This helps prevent confusion and keeps the arena looking neat and organized throughout the weekend.

📢 More Information Coming Soon!

Please continue to watch for additional DACOF communications over the coming days. As we get closer to the event, we'll be sending updates almost daily, including:

🐕 Running Order Information🚶 Walk Group Assignments🚐 RV Assignments (scheduled to be posted late Monday, June 22)⚡ DACOF FAST Pre-Briefing Information📋 Additional event reminders and updates

Thank you all for your continued support and enthusiasm as we prepare for another amazing DACOF weekend.

Have a GREAT weekend, and we'll see everyone next week!

Bill, Kathy, Jen, Erica & Ashley
