The Retrieving Club of WA Inc. held its first trial for the 2023 season on 8th April, on a cloudy cool day at a property at Arthur River with thanks to the owner for allowing us to use the property.
Sincere thanks must also be extended to Ray Johnson for sourcing this property, liaising with the property owners and collecting pigeons for the RCWA trials.
Sincere thanks to the wonderful stewards, Dennis Graham, Sally Hudson, Michael Symes, George Joanes, Allan Bartram, Ray Johnson and Eleanor Johnson who travelled down specifically to help on the day.
