Today we put on a training day for the helpers of last year’s 2 day Open Retriever Trial as a thank you.

Our Interim Chairman Kevin Butler Turpingreen Gundogs 2022 IGL Retriever Champions and Breeders. ran the training day and set up retrieves to push both dog and handler and after a lovely buffet lunch (and cakes!) we finished off with a fun walk-up.

A great day was had by all and it was a lovely day to show our appreciation for their help.
