Comments from participants

2007 Tourneys --------------------------------

  • "Well I just got back from one of the most wonderful trips I have ever taken!....I can't say enough about the friendly people who made all seven of us out-of-towners feel like family....The Wednesday night cookout/reception out at one of the team members homes on a lake overlooking snow capped mountains in the distance will be something I will always remember....So flyball people if you are adventurous and want to take the trip of a lifetime start planning for Alaska's Summer Solstice Flyball tourney next year you won't be sorry!"
    -- Gail D'Avolio (honorary teammate of White Mountain Mayhem)

  • "We had a blast!.... To anyone on this list who has thought of traveling to AK and running in this tournament all I can say is DO IT... Alaska is beautiful, it is a land of extremes but it is worth the effort."
    -- Trish Gedney (White Mountain Mayhem)
  • "Jerry and I (and Xandr and Wylee) can't express how much fun we had up there and how thankful we were for all of the fantastic hospitality. Your entire team was wonderfully helpful and so open and generous...[the experience was] hopefully the beginning of a lifetime of friendships."
    -- Linda Sell (QuickSilver)

2006 Tourneys --------------------------------

  • "I would personally like to thank you and your group for the best time I have had at a tourney yet! Probably will never be beat as you set the bar very high for your first!"
    --Todd Beedle (Good2Go)
  • "We had a GREAT time. Do yourself a favour and go to their tournament in 2007. Curtis and the crew from ADGW put on the best show we have ever been a part of...well maybe a close second to a G2G Tournament. :) . No really..we have NEVER been treated better and we come from a great region."
    -- Darcey Sare (Good2Go)
