Open award winners from left Steve Le Voi, Catherine Munn, Ellena Nunneley and Pat Dixon
The Midland Area held Novice and Open tests at Marston Lodge, Marston Trussell by kind permission of Charlotte and Patrick Clackson and the valued assistance of Chris Thresh. Judges for the day were Derrick Capel, Brian Barker, Jim Collins and Carol Probert. A great day - wonderful ground, lovely weather, an excellent entry and a fantastic team of cheerful willing helpers. Thank you to everybody. Steve Newitt and Pete Goddard had set interesting and sometime challenging tests using the undulating ground both in and outside the woods and the dogs were kept busy as they moved round the estate.
There was a marvellous response to our raffle the proceeds of which will be donated to Mesothelioma in memory of Dave Probert, a total of £400 well done and thank you.
