POINTING LAB Seminar in WA -- Head Count
 

There is a good possibility that we will have a Julie Knutson Pointing Lab Seminar at Burlington Ranch (Chewelah WA) the last weekend of June (27 - 28).

If (right now) you are an honest 90+% sure you would attend, PM me.

Here's what Julie sent me as far as the content of her Seminar :

Here’s how I handle these things generally because I don’t do them to maximize profit. I don’t care how many people come, but there is generally only time for 12 upland dogs. Often people can bring their dog out for a demonstration in obedience or force fetch type stuff, of whoa, folks love to watch that but 12 upland is going to take a great deal of Sunday.


I don’t dictate much except: 1. number of dogs to do upland work; 2. Saturday begins with general discussion sans canines, dogs have to be in crates or out of the way. Then there will be more discussion of the ‘tool building’ obedience, force fetch, bird work, whoa stuff, collar conditioning. Dogs are used when available and necessary to illustrate points or show how to work through a problem. After that is complete, we do whatever hands on work with dogs people like, including handling stuff if there is time or interest. Interestingly, few PL folks get that far so that’s always a short section. If time allows, we set up appropriate marks and blinds for those wishing to run them or learn about setting them up. Folks are often brain numb by this time. 3. Sunday we review and answer questions stemming from Saturday, then we begin doing upland work by talking about that person’s problems or issues, then working in the field and then coming back and discussing it with the audience. This requires visibility when the dog is in the upland field so we’re all on the same page. 4. On the completion of upland work, if time allows, we review anything anyone wants, including going back to the basic stuff (of which at this point they begin to see the relevancy).

This subject has probably intimidated more people out of homeschooling to graduation than any other, yet it can be one of the most enjoyable, life-enriching areas of study! This book gleans from the wisdom of many science and homeschool "experts" and draws from Barb's "master form designer" abilities to give rich food for thought in formulating your priorities for your lab science class. Here's what Cindy, a homeschool mom, said about it: " I've only read part of it so far, but it's even got ME excited about science!! It is giving me all kinds of ideas of things to fill in our high school framework. As usual, she takes the fear out of something by giving us the tools with which to lead our children in the way God is pointing them. Thanks, Barb. Also, as usual, the price is way less than you would expect to pay for something with this much helpful info in it!" The book contains sample frameworks for many lab science areas, ideas, and record- keeping forms to help you coordinate or create your own course, as well as more traditional resources to draw from, if you prefer. As is happening with Cindy, it was designed to replace the "jitters" with delight and direction!
