AN IMPORTANT REMINDER

VERY IMPORTANT MADISON INFORMATION:

Boards must be ordered by May 6th to give the supplier enough time to order from the company they get them from. If you put the board order on your entry form, I will advise them what you need.

Shavings need to be ordered by May 13th so again they can order and have enough shavings available for you at the show. If you put the shavings order on your entry form, I will advise them what you need.

Thank you !!
