Sincerest congratulations for reaching this pinnacle in the NAHRA program! Participating in RAW 2001 is an honor and reward for the commitment you and your dog have given to becoming a national level TEAM!

The Midwest Region NAHRA clubs are excited - and in motion - to present to you a memorable event worthy of national showcase status. The grounds we have chosen for the event will provide ideal testing conditions for handlers and dogs. Chichaqua Bottoms Greenbelt Wildlife Area (just north of Des Moines, Iowa) has marshes, open fields, interesting terrain, and some new areas that have yet to be used for testing. A lodge situated on the grounds will provide space for evening social events as well.

We hope you will come and join us for some Midwest Region hospitality, and a good old Iowa style pheasant hunt within the testing format!
