Here are some ideas: **Examples:** ###### Portuguese Water Dog Water Trials: "Let us know which leg you're aiming for in the notes section during registration." ###### Pointing Breed Field Trials: "This stake is closed to breeds other than [list of breeds]." **Considerations:** - Use this space to clarify any details that might not be clear from the title of the level alone. - Keep your notes concise and easy to understand for participants. ![when stakes field (1)](https://perfdog.com/hs-fs/hubfs/when%20stakes%20field%20(1).png?width=400&height=300&name=when%20stakes%20field%20(1).png) #### The "When" Option This is where you schedule when each stake/level occurs in your event. **Not sure: **This is used when the level cannot start until another is finished.   **Specific day/time:** Use this if you know exactly when the level will begin.  **Not before a day/time:** Use this if starting time isn't yet fixed, but you know it won't begin before a specific time. This is common for Pointing Breed Field Trials, especially for levels on day 2. **Estimated day/time:** Use this when you only have an estimated starting time. Pointing breed field trials can use this when the start time for a stake is uncertain. ### Need more answers?
