Breakstone, owned and handled by Dr. Roger Boser, has won the Open Championship; runner-up is Rocky's Straight Arrow, owned by Brian Gelinas and handled by Don Jones. A total of 21 dogs entered and ran.

The Red Setter Futurity is ongoing as of this posting, with 2 braces completed and 5 to go...

In the Open Walking Shooting Dog Classic, Her Ruby Red Slipper took the 1st, owned and handled by Al Fazenbaker. Second was Hondo Muldoon, owned and handled by Jim Ashby; 3rd went to Meteu Medicine Man, owned and handled by Al Fazenbaker. A total of 10 dogs in the stake.

The Open Walking Derby was won by "Red" , owned and handled by Bill Aughenbaugh; don't have 2nd place dog name available right now, but I think the dog was handled by Billie Vaughn of Come Back Kennels; third was taken by Conneaut Creek Holly's Memory, owned and handled by Al Fazenbaker.
