Do I need to be a member to enter my Schipperke in the show?
No! This is a single breed show open to all. Members and non members are welcome to enter their Schipperkes.
Will there be trophies on offer at this show?
Yes there are trophies for class winners and top award winners (e.g. Best In Show) but they are for fully paid up members of the club only. A full list is in the schedule.
Can I keep the trophy?
NO! You must return it for the next show, as they are awarded on an annual basis.
Please make sure the trophy is cleaned before you bring it back, or the trophy steward will give you a cleaning cloth and make you clean it there at the show!!
How do I return the trophy?
You should have received a note from the Trophy Steward (at present this is Jan Mance one of the club’s Vice Presidents, her address is in the schedule) asking you to bring it to the Show with you. If you are unable to be at the show this year then you should make arrangements to return it via another method (a friend who will be going maybe or if you are attending Crufts drop it with a Jan or a committee member there).
Will there be a catalogue available?
Yes catalogues will be available t £3 if you pay with your entry, or £3.50 on the day – but there will only be a limited number available at the show so it is best to order with your entry!
Can I pay my membership with my entry?
You can renew your membership with your entry to the show, but you will need to send in a completed membership renewal form (which is in your schedule). BUT in order to vote in the A.G.M. you need your membership to be paid by 31st January 2019.
How much is it to renew my membership?
Joint membership i.e. two people in the same household is £12.
Single membership £10.
Junior membership £1.
Will there be food?
There will be the usual Buffet Lunch. With soup to start (personally I love the carrot just as much as the mushroom!) followed by a main course consisting of selection of cold meats or a vegetarian option. If you are vegan, please let us know! There will be a selection of sweets with cream or cheese and biscuits and a hot drink (tea or coffee) to follow.
How much will the food cost?
Pre ordering your starter and main course with your entry will cost you £4.50 and the sweet £1.50. The starter and main course on the day will be £5.50 and sweet £2.00. So it is best to pre order!
How come we pay for the sweet course separately now?
It was felt that as the price of our lunches had been the same for so many years we needed to put up the cost. So it was decided that charging for the Sweet Course would be the best option. And as some people did not take the sweet course it would be unfair to charge them extra for their lunch. It also meant that those people who bring their own packed lunches would be able to purchase a cake and hot drink after their meal – without having to pay for the whole meal.
What time will the show finish and when will the A.G.M start?
This depends upon the number entries. But the A.G.M will follow lunch and will not start before 1pm.
Can I bring along a guest?
Yes visitors are always welcome at the show and they do not need to be a member watch or take part in the show.
Will there be a raffle or tombola?
There will be a raffle and donations of prizes for this will be much appreciated.
Schedules are available for the Open show which will take place at Nether Whitacre Village hall on 25th March, followed by the A.G.M.
The show will open at 8:45am and judging will start at 9:30am. The judge is Mrs Christina Wilkin (Whizzkees).
