And it's a wrap! Winter scent work trial done and dusted.
It was big, it was wet, it was muddy but most importantly it was a fun weekend.
Many people to thank for making the weekend work as well as it did.
Judges, amazing as always. Accommodating, kind and encouraging and you set some great challenges for our dogs to work through. Thank you Lyn Clearwater, Kim Burford, Trudy Hutchison, Matilda van Rijnberk, Jane Morgan and Jo Miller for standing out in the cold and wet so the rest of us could have fun with our dogs.
Melissa Paterson, Carina Gough and Melissa Perry for doing results.
Ailsa Hawkins, Jean McKinnon and Raewyn Lawrence for making sure the judges were very well fed.
Jennie McLaren and Vicky Fox for lending us vehicles.
Thank you LJ Smith for volunteering to be the 2nd in command ๐๐ป
All helpers who did timing jobs, callboard jobs, helped with set up, cleaned at the end of the weekend, assisted judges, carried things, drove to pick someone up, helped in the kitchen, organized raffles and those who kept me on track, THANK YOU! we can't run a show without you ๐๐ป
Marjo Buis, Doug Legget, Toni Alsop and Rachel McKenzie, thank you for giving up part of your weekend to come and help with jobs, always smiling and making things happen, we appreciate you.
A massive thank you to Gareth and Adam from Beachlands Speedway, who helped me set up the vehicles and answered my many questions ๐
If I've forgotten someone, I apologize! I'm quite tired.
