On Tuesday 16th December 2015, we held our Annual Christmas Party and Presentations of Club Members Awards for 2015
The evening was well attended with a huge raffle, refreshments and some games (such as a “sausage race” and “dog n spoon race”) for handlers and dogs. There was a lovely atmosphere and everyone seemed to have a good evening.
The Chairman thanked everyone for attending and for supporting the club, throughout the year.
Norman Brown, who is a stalwart of the club, attending twice a month to teach handling skills, attended with his wife, Betty.
We thank Norman for his continuing support of our club, over so many years.
We also had a Team Handling Match – organised and judged by Norman Brown, which was great fun
