Notes :

(1)  The VFA regrets that no arrangements will be made to provide hunting sites.   It strongly suggests attendees arrive on Friday in time to find hunting sites and acquire permission to hunt.

(2)  Please indicate on the sheet provided on the Headquarters door all quarry you take during the meet or, if taken on Sunday after your or his departure inform.

(3)  The Board requests that all VFA members and other attending falconers participate in forming hunting parties and thereby assure that all of our guests can witness the wonders of falconry.

(4)  Please contact John Foley or sign-up on the headquarters door by 5pm on Saturday if you will attend the group dinner at Pano's Restaurant, next to the Belle Meade Motel.  Failure to do so may preclude you eating with most of us.
