Moy - Highland Field Sports Fair 5th/6th August 2011
A HUGE Thank you to all of you who helped out at Moy; preparing the ground and setting out the tests, managing the tent, dummy throwing, scoreboard, and of course doing the demonstration. Special thanks to the judges, Annette Usher and John MacColl, our commentators Malcolm Smith and John Wilson, and of course all the competitors. Many of you travelled quite a way to be there - Thank You.

TEST - RALIA ESTATE
This year’s summer test venue was changed at the last minute due to a double booking at the gun club. Thankfully the venue used for the Interclub was available at Ralia estate so once again we had an excellent day with a record 18 puppy entries in the retrievers! The novice and open retriever tests were also well supported with attendance from some competitors as far away as southern England! The spaniel tests were also well attended with some welcome new faces. Once again thanks to all who helped or participated.

INTERCLUB TEST 2010

Results as follows:
1st Argyll Gundog Club
2nd North of Scotland Gundog Club
3rd Strathmore Gundog Club
Top dog Levenghyl Isle of Mull (Roddy McBain)

TEST - LOCH AN DINTY, BY CROY
After a late change of location due to the snow at Moy, the first of this year’s tests was held at Loch an Dinty, By Croy on Sunday 14tht March 2010 by kind permission of Moray Estates. A huge thanks to them for allowing the club to use such excellent ground for the event. It was another great event with an excellent turnout for both the Spaniel and Retriever Tests.
