Help at the Show
As we are not a dog club we don’t have an army of volunteers standing by to run the rings.
We want you to enjoy the show & you will only do this if the rings all run smoothly. So in order that we have the required help we ask that everyone entered at the show helps for at least 2 hours over the three days.
Anyone that offers to help all day will receive £6.70 refunded, the equivalent of 1 nights camping or 3 class entry fees, plus some lunch money.

sharp bends in the road. On one of these bends take a left turn sign-posted Appleby and
Broughton.
Take the 2nd turning on your right sign-posted Winterton. The venue is ¼ mile on your
right hand side. If you reach the mini roundabout you have gone too far.
