National Dog Show 2020 - statement
On 17th March the Kennel Club issued advice regarding the safety and
security of competitors, spectators, volunteers and staff at Kennel Club
events. The Officers and Committee of Birmingham National Dog Show, in
line with Kennel Club advice that all Events should be cancelled until
the end of June, have agreed to cancel the Championship Show scheduled
for 7th – 10th
May 2020.
The Society believe that postponing and rearranging later in
the year would not be fair to other Championship and Breed Shows who
have their
show dates agreed for later in year and for this reason the Society
have decided not to apply to the Kennel Club for a new show date in
2020. We hope that you will now look forward to joining us at our 2021
Show,
when our aim, as always, will be to provide the best possible exhibitor
experience.
All judges will now be contacted and exhibitors who have
made entries will be given a refund of monies paid, less a £5 administrative
charge.
Jennie Griffiths, Secretary
Bath Canine Society Dog Show 2020 - statement
On 17th March 2020, the
Kennel Club issued advice regarding the safety and security of
competitors, spectators, volunteers and staff at Kennel Club events.
The Officers
and Committee of Bath Canine Society, in line with Kennel Club
advice that all Events should be cancelled until the end of June,
have agreed
to cancel the Championship Show scheduled for 22nd to 25th May
2020.
The Society has explored all possible options as to whether
or not we can
postpone until later in the year. Sadly, due to the non-availability
of our contractors and due to the uncertainty of the current situation,
we believe that postponing and rearranging later in the year would
not be feasible and for this reason the Society have decided not
to apply to the Kennel Club for a new show date in 2020. All
judges will
now be
contacted and exhibitors who have made entries will be given a
refund of monies paid, less a £5 administrative charge.
We hope
that you understand the difficulty of the situation the Society
has sadly been
placed in but hope that we will look forward to seeing you at our
2021 Show, where the usual warm West Country welcome will await
you
Lee Cox,
Secretary
Three Counties Championship Show - statement
Following on from the advice issued by the Kennel Club on March 17th
regarding the health and safety of all participants and helpers
plus the Three Counties Agricultural Society statement on March 20th
the officers
and committee have made the decision to cancel our show scheduled
for June 4th – June 7th 2020. We are sure that you will understand
and we share your disappointment. All judges and helpers will now
be advised of our decision. All postal entries will be returned. Online
entries fees will be refunded to the credit or debit card used
for the
transaction. We will now continue with our preparations to provide
a pleasant show in such beautiful surroundings next year and look
forward
to welcoming you in June 2021.
Jackie Lane, Secretary
Cancelled due to Government
Advice
Following the recent change in Government advice, it is with much
regret that we can confirm the cancellation of the following events
that were due to take place at Three Counties Showground this year.
CountryTastic – 9 April
RHS Malvern Spring Festival – 7-10 May
Three Counties Championship Dog Show – 4-7 June
Royal Three Counties Show – 12-14 June
Whilst we’re devastated to be making this announcement, we
wholeheartedly support the Government on this matter. We know these
events are a calendar highlight for many thousands of people and
that our exhibitors, designers and traders spend many months getting
ready for the show, but public health and safety has to be our
number one priority, for the sake of our staff, visitors and for
our wider community.
The cancellation of our shows will have a big impact on our staff
and wider community in many ways. With this in mind, and with the
uncertainty facing us in the months ahead, it’s more important
than ever that we pull together to support the most vulnerable
amongst us. We’re currently looking at ways that we as an
organisation can get involved in wider community efforts.
Currently, the cancellation advice only affects CountryTastic,
RHS Malvern Spring Festival, Three Counties Championship Dog Show
and Royal Three Counties Show. We’re hoping to hold Malvern
Autumn Show at the showground as planned. We will continue to monitor
the situation and will provide updates should the Government advice
change.
We will be in contact with everyone who has purchased tickets to
the four cancelled events, along with all our stakeholders within
the next 21 days.
We would like to thank our visitors, exhibitors, sponsors and all
who support our shows, and extend our best wishes to everybody
at this challenging time.
