Hi all,

Stewards are required for the Vic State which is running on 25th and 26th October at the Switzerland site. Great chance for some Novice handlers to get a close up look at how the big dogs do it and at the same time put a little back into our sport. We need as many people as possible to spread the load. Anyone willing to come up and help please let me know if you can be there one day or two and if only for one day then which one.

thanks in anticipation
