Pay close attention to where you exercise your dogs, avoiding high traffic areas. Seek immediate veterinary medical assistance if your dogs show any signs of illness, both at the shows or when you return home. Consult your own veterinarian about heartworm protection.

24 FACE MASK POLICY The Collie Club of America has adopted this policy for your protection:
According to Government sources, face masks are necessary to protect yourself and others and to prevent the spread of infectious diseases including the Covid-19 virus, according to government sources.
All attendees (ages 2 and up) are required to wear a face mask while on the event grounds. The face mask must be worn so that it covers your mouth and nose. Please bring your own face masks and wear one at all times. The use of a face mask is not a substitute for physical distancing. You may remove the face mask while actively eating or drinking, but you must be stationary and maintain appropriate physical distancing.
All face masks (whether disposable or reusable) must: ● Be made with at least two or more layers of washable (if not disposable), breathable fabric and not have valves or vents. ● Fully cover the nose and mouth. ● Fit snugly against the sides of your face and not have gaps. ● Be secured with ties or ear loops and allow the attendee to remain hands-free. In Addition to: ● If using a disposable mask, it should be changed daily and disposed of properly. ● If you are using a face shield you must also wear a face mask. ● Even if you received one or both of your COVID vaccines, you must still wear a mask. ● If you are unable to wear a face mask for medical reasons, we are unable to alter our plans to accommodate you due to the size of the event and the burden. If you would like to enter your dog, we suggest you have a friend or a handler that can follow these guidelines to show your dog.
The following are not permitted: ● Neck Gaiters ● Open chin triangle bandanas ● Face masks with valves, vents, mesh material or holes of any kind.
To get the most benefits from a face mask: ● Make sure it completely covers your nose and mouth. ● Wash your hands before and after removing it. Handle only the loops or ties. Fold outside corners together. ● Try not to touch your face when you adjust it throughout the day. ● Keep cloth coverings clean by washing daily, or more often if contamination occurs. ● Don’t let others wear your face mask. ● Keep it away from equipment or machinery that it could get caught in. ● If using disposable face masks, do not reuse them, and throw them away in appropriate trash receptacles. ● Don’t lay your face mask on any surface that may contaminate either the covering or the surface.
As important as they are, face masks are only one source of prevention, all attendees will be required to comply with all CCA COVID-19 Attendee Protocols. The CCA COVID- 19 Attendee Protocols and this Face Mask Policy are subject to change without notice.
Failure to comply with this policy may result in you being asked to leave the event grounds and/or may result in an CCA Show Committee hearing and disciplinary action.

Upon our receipt of your signed waiver, you will receive your entry wristband that you MUST wear each day that you are on the show grounds. THERE ARE NO EXCLUSIONS OR EXCEPTIONS.
I am fully aware of the risks involved with entering the premises and facilities located at the Laramie County Fairgrounds, Cheyenne, Wyoming (herein, the “Fairgrounds''), Rancho Terra Norte, Wellington, Colorado (herein the” Ranch”) (Collectively, the “Facilities”) during the COVID-19 pandemic (or with respect to any related or similar infection, which together are herein referred to as “COVID-19”). I am entering into this Waiver knowingly and on my own behalf. As a condition of my being allowed to enter the Facilities, I will fully comply with: (i) any health and safety, and (ii) all local, state, and federal requirements, each of (i) - (ii) as amended from time to time (collectively, the “COVID-19 Protocols”). If I test positive for COVID-19 or am exposed to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, I agree to notify someone in charge promptly and before reentering the Facilities. I acknowledge that the risks involved with entering the Facilities and being in the presence of other people during the COVID-19 pandemic including, but are not limited to, contracting COVID-19, respiratory failure, death, and transmitting COVID-19 to family or household members and others who may also suffer these effects. I further understand that compliance with the COVID-19 protocols will not eliminate these risks, even with social distancing and other safety measures in place at the Facilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, I elect to voluntarily participate in entering the Facilities with full knowledge that doing so may be hazardous to my health and those with whom I may come into contact. I voluntarily assume full responsibility for any risks of loss or personal injury, including serious illness, injury, or death that may be sustained by me or by others who come into contact with me, as a result of my presence at the Facilities, whether caused by the negligence of the Collie Club of America, Inc., Ranch, or the Fairgrounds. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I release, waive, forever discharge responsibility and covenant not to sue the Collie Club of America, Inc., Fairgrounds, Ranch and their respective affiliates and each of the foregoing’s respective administrators, members, officers, directors, employees, volunteers, sponsors, vendors, contractors, medical services providers, judges, superintendents or event secretary, and agents, (the “Releasees”) from any and all liability, claims, demands, actions and causes of action whatsoever arising out of or related to any loss, damage, illness, or injury, including death, that may be sustained by me or by others who come into contact with me, whether caused by the negligence of the Releasees, other entities or individuals, or otherwise as a result of, or related to, my decision to enter the Facilities. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND AGREE THAT IT IS VALID FOREVER. It is my express intent that this Waiver binds; (i) the members of my family and spouse, if I am alive, and (ii) my heirs, assigns and personal representatives, if I am deceased. I understand that this Waiver does not apply to any claim that, as a matter of law, cannot be released by private agreement. If any of the provisions, terms or clauses of this Waiver is declared illegal, unenforceable, or ineffective in a legal forum, those provisions, terms, and clauses shall be deemed severable, such that all other provisions, terms, and clauses of this Waiver shall remain valid and binding upon both parties.
31 I agree that any controversy or claim between me and any of the Releasees arising out of or relating to this Waiver or my presence at the Facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic shall be resolved by confidential, final, and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). All proceedings brought pursuant to this paragraph will proceed before a single arbitrator, who shall be an experienced arbitrator licensed to practice law in the State of Colorado, take place in the County of Denver, State of Colorado, and be conducted in accordance with AAA’s applicable rules. The parties agree that (i) any and all issues relating to arbitration or this arbitration clause, including, without limitation, the threshold question of arbitrability or the enforcement or validity of this arbitration clause, will be delegated to the arbitrator selected pursuant to this provision, (ii) the arbitrator will have the power to award any remedies, including, attorneys’ fees and costs, available under applicable law, (iii) judgment upon the award that the arbitrator renders may be entered in any court having jurisdiction, and (iv) the arbitrator’s award may be vacated or modified only on the grounds specified in the FAA or other applicable law. I agree that all controversies and claims between me and any of the Releasees arising out of or relating to this Waiver or my presence at the Facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic must be pursued on an individual basis only. By signing this Waiver, I waive my right to commence, or be a party to any class actions or collective claims against the Releasees.

This club and its superintendents assume no responsibility for the owner or owner's agents entering a dog in a class in which the dog is not eligible to compete, or for entering the same dog twice. 2. Returned Checks do not constitute a valid entry fee. The Superintendent will add a collection fee to the amount of each returned check and declined credit card. Subsequent returned checks for the same exhibitors may result in their being put on a cash only basis. The returned check or declined credit card must be made good by cash or money order before the dog will be allowed in the ring. 3.

It is the responsibility of the exhibitor to have his dog ready to be shown and at the entrance of the judging ring when the steward calls for the class. Owners of dogs or the handlers of the dogs alone are responsible for the presence of their dogs in the judging rings. This means it is not the responsibility of the ring steward, nor of any agent of the show-giving club to locate any dog, its owner or handler, when the dog's presence is needed in a judging ring. It should be understood by every exhibitor and handler that waiting for dogs to be brought into the ring is a courtesy extended to the owner or handler of the dog. There is no rule of this club nor of The American Kennel Club that requires a judge to wait for an owner or handler to bring his dog into the ring. 5. Trophies and prizes will be awarded in the judging ring before the completion of the judging of the breed and the superintendent's office advised at once, in the event of any discrepancy. All trophies must be claimed the day of the show. None will be mailed. 6.

It is distinctly understood that every dog at this show is in the care and custody and control of his owner or handler during the entire time the dog is on the show premises. 8. No grooming tables, pens or exhibitors’ setups will be allowed in the aisles and all grooming must be done away from the judging ring in areas specified by the club. 9.

Do not leave any dogs in closed vehicles. 14. Dogs which according to their owners' records have completed the requirements for a championship after the closing of entries for the show but whose championships are unconfirmed, may be transferred from one of the regular classes to the Best of Breed or Variety Competition, provided this transfer is made by the Superintendent at least one half hour prior to the start of the earliest Conformation judging at the Show. 15.
