Fun activities, games, good food and a chance to take the Club Working Tests and to compete in the Triathlon.  The Triathlon consists of: 1. Fast Retrieve  2. Simple Obedience  3.

There will not be a Seminar run by our Branch. (we’re having a holiday from Seminars this year!). 

Also we regret to say that the Branch Open Agility show will no longer take place. This event has become a victim of its own success and problems with finding an adequate venue and sufficient manpower have become insuperable.
