The Retrieving Club held the "Click Go the Shears" Novice stake and a restricted stake down at Crossman on May 6th. After several days of rain, the air had been refreshed and we were lucky to have fine and cloudy weather throughout the day.
Again, thank you to Ray Penman for travelling down solely to steward during the two stakes, you are a gem. And to Ian Webster for helping in setting runs prior to the trial and placing throwers on the day. Also, to the competitors, thanks for stepping in to help out when needed.
