                                                                                                                    THANK YOU

from the Chairman Ann Brown South West Assn Wpcs Committee

 Our Annual Medal show was held at Bicton arena on a humid but thankfully dry day last Sunday and very grateful thanks are due to many people, especially:  Lorna Knowles and her team in the secretaries office, Belinda and Chris Watson for setting up/ taking down on Saturday and Sunday, PA System and announcements, Jenny Westlake for also setting up and checking site/stables, Rob Curtis for controlling stables and Tim Brown for an excellent job looking after all our judges on the day( and litter picking!!!)

Thanks go as well to all the honourable  judges who carried out their task with thought and a smile. Also to all our generous sponsors, especially in this difficult financial time, many thanks.

Last but certainly not least, as without the generous giving of time and effort we would not be able to run this show, our VERY grateful thanks go to all the stewards and helpers.

                                                                                   Many thanks to you all and we hope you enjoyed your day,
