Ireland Prizes At Irish Game Fair At Shanes Castle

[AlbertJ 569]

We are delighted to report our stand base for what we hope will be the largest Irish Game Fair ever is running away ahead of last year and we are close to finalising bookings for our indoor stands. Lurcher Racing including All Ireland Championships over longer course and Master Mc Grath Final over 150 yards on Saturday 29th June. 12.00 noon start.

 

26th All Ireland Championships Showing on Sunday 30th June 12 noon start.

 

In spite of the recession we have managed to get quite a few sponsors being prepared to join us in sponsoring what will be the best prize fund at any game or country fair in Ireland this year.

 

We have in place some excellent prizes for the top terriers, lurchers and whippets - Rosettes as normal throughout and good quality trophies for the top winners. But turning to class prizes I would like to ask your opinion on whether you would like a trophy as the class prizes or a 15Kg bag of good quality dog food? Some people have suggested that they would appreciate the food more.

Margaret,

 

You probably have a massive amount of trophies. Nice to have momento but personally I think a rosette is Ok for this.

LJ,

 

Thanks that makes it 4-0 for the meal so far - bit more expensive for us but we try to give our events the best prizes we can.

I think working dog folk folk would appreciate a bag of food more than a trophy.

I know I would..... if I was lucky enough.
