Show Managers Report RBBA Show 4th October 2014

As I was not able to be present at the Show this year due to family illness, this is a difficult report to write. However, firstly I must tell you that the show has made a very good profit due to several things. We had over £400 of donations from Members, we had an increased entry, a lot of visitors and we went back to back with the Ocicat Club which resulted in substantial savings. Every Committee Member liked the venue, spacious free car park and super catering by the Church Catering Team in Ettington.

Although it was a rather damp morning vetting in appeared to go smoothly with our new Vet, Mr. Laurie Hall in charge. I do hope we can get him for 2015. Judging in the capable hands of Lynda Ashmore, Michele Codd, Val Anderson-Drew and Lyndsey Grant (Pedigrees) and Miggie Ravenscroft and Stephen Whiting (Non Ped Section) was completed in good time enabling BIS to be completed and the show to close early.

Going back to the background of getting the show on the road I want to thank all those you contributed in any way. Dot Thomson did her usual excellent task of Class allocation way back in January 2014. Ian Macro did all our Schedule and Catalogue computer work and printing. Melva Eccles greatly helped with local advertising. I chased and collated all the catalogue Advertising and contacted many companies for sponsorship (adverts, gifts, freebies etc). Norman Young made our lovely new BIS boards which looked very professional.

On Friday there was a good team of committee members and Dot Thomson, plus Dave & Donna Johnson who all worked their socks off to get everything sorted. On Saturday, Kate Kaye and Jenny Fleming handled not only their own tasks but everything that I would have done if I had been present. I owe you both a drink! Dot donated the Raffle Hamper and ran the stall all day, assisted by Sarah Williams-Ellis. Caroline Moore with the help of Australian member Pam Worsely (Vyatka) ran the Club Table. Kate Kaye, Andrea Cherry and Kate Ford ran the Results Table and Clare Bandy and Sue Young managed the Rosettes. Judith Noble and Jane Trodd sorted the Cups and Trophies. Ian Macro also handled several tasks on our behalf like ordering certificates and doing the end of Show paperwork back to Council. I even hear rumours that he got the vacuum cleaner out and vacuumed the hall at the end of the day! Many thanks Ian, this meant we could claim back the £50 Cleaning Deposit. Dave & Donna Johnson took lots of lovely photos which can be seen on their Facebook page – they were especially good for me as I wasn’t there on the day. We also had some sons and daughters helping out on the day – many thanks. We had a great set of stewards who worked tirelessly all day.

All in All I think everyone did a wonderful job and I would like to say a big thank you and a request that you give us the same excellent support in 2015. Same venue on 3rd October 2015. Fortunately the change of date for the Supreme in 2015 does not affect our date.
