Registration for Fall Frenzy Agility Workshops will open starting Wednesday, August 31st at 8:00 PM.
In an effort to reduce stress and increase fairness, any workshop that over-fills within the first 12 hours, will have spots given by random draw. If a workshop does not fill in the first 12 hours, spots will be first come first serve.
All workshops have 8 working spots. The registration links will be on our events page. We will be putting them up one by one after 8pm on August 31st, so if you do not see what you are looking for right away, just hit refresh.
Registering does not guarantee you a spot. There will be more sign ups than spots so that we are able to create waitlists and pull for the random draw. We will email you to confirm spots. If, after registration opens, you do not see anything available, it means that the workshop and the waitlist are full.
Cost is $135 per workshop.
