Hi Tim,

We would hope to be holding the trial in the Geelong area but it will very much dependant on water and where we get rain, if it ever comes!!!!

So all I can say is that it will definitely be in Victoria, site to be determined a lot closer to the trial date depending on the weather.

Cheers

Kate

Hi All,

We've just returned from visiting the trial site in Geelong and can confirm the Trial will be held in that area. Just have to confirm a few things with the farmer.

We will be running Beginners, Novice and Restricted.

The club will also be catering on the day, please let us know with your entries if you would like breakfast. Lunch will also be catered.

For further info please contact us at home the week prior to the trial.

Cheers

Kate
