Club Events 2008

Crufts 2008

Saturday 8th March

Ok, its not a club event but the club does have an official presence at the ringside of the Bernese judging. You can renew or take out membership, ask about the club or breed and of course purchase Bernese related items from our Bernershop. This year the club will have three stands instead of our usual two and, as well as look at the 185 Bernese, entered  under judge Helen Davenport Willis, members will be able to collect their latest mailing which includes the 2008 handbook.

Paid up club members will receive full details of all club events in plenty of time to enter. If you do not you should contact the Membership Secretary.

 GARDEN PARTY 2008

Sunday 11th May 2008

Roade Village Hall, Bailey Brooks Lane, Roade, Northamptonshire NN7 2PT

Details: Mandy Hearne

The Garden Party is basically a big Funday for Bernese. There are lots of fun and novelty classes and parades as well as working events such as carting, agility and obedience. It is an excellent chance for prospective owners to meet Bernese and their owners, ask questions and make contacts for puppies. Much more relaxed than a show and most people have much more time to talk. It is simply a pleasant family day out with your dog.

N.B. The price for camping/caravanning at this event has been omitted from the form sent out with the current mailing, it is £5 per unit per night. All other details are present and correct and your booking form should be sent in exactly as described with your remittance.
