Wide Bay (Bundaberg) Results 8/9/10 June

[Wendy Michalk]

Once again the long weekend trial was a big success , being not only a trial but a great social event with tea provided on both Saturday & Sunday nights, enjoyed around a campfire.
The weather though threatening rain was good trialling weather for QLD, shirt sleeves all weekend.
Special thanks to Ron Cooper(NSW) who so kindly judged all 3 days , we don't normally work our interstate judges so hard, however everyone enjoyed running under Ron this weekend.

[Amand Golle]

I announced my retirement from Judging at the Wide Bay week-end where I Judged All Age as my final appointment.

This All Age event was won by B. Boodnikoff with his great Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever - RTCH. LIDLRIVA ONYX GUNDI. This gave me a great thrill as GUNDI performed magnificently and was awarded a CERTIFICATE OF MERIT, which we all know is not awarded very often.

My retirement from Judging after 32 years leaves me with great memories, as I had the privilege of assessing working Pure-Bred Gundogs in most parts of Australia and at every level, having judged Two National Championships and numerous State Championships.

I wish everyone in the sport good-luck in the future as I step back in my twilight years and cheer on the younger Judges.

Regards to all
