Event Summary - Greyhound Gathering - Kanab 2008
Tentative Schedule for 2008. Well-behaved hounds are invited EVERYWHERE! Your Greyt Read Booklet will have the definite schedule, which you will get at your hotels.
Best Friends Tours need to be scheduled in advance. Call 644-2001 x 4537. Times are 9 am, 10:30 am, 1:30 pm, 3 pm. Tours are one and a half hours. The first people to sign up can bring their hounds. Others, who have to bring hounds with them, vs leaving them in a car or hotel, can follow behind the tour van in your own cars. Make sure to not schedule a tour during a Gathering event. Thursday and Sunday afternoon are the best times for tours.
