2nd March 2025 – message from the secretary

1. Reminder for anyone who hasn’t paid their membership or Kennel fee – can this be paid as soon as possible please to either myself or Paul
2. Can I ask that members follow the rule regarding informing the Secretary when a dog is missing not everyone informs me so it would be much appreciated if this could happen this season hopefully there will be no missing dogs.
3. Statement to all promoters re Fixture Committee – this year the fixture committee will NOT be taking place this year. All details regarding proposed trails will need to be directed towards you local Area meeting and confirmed at the Area meeting. Any negotiations between areas will need to take place prior to the Area meetings confirming fixtures. Now that there are only four areas this should not be too onerous for people to do. South Lakes Area meetings will take place on the first Monday of the month, Whitehaven Area meetings will take place on the first Friday, Cockermouth and Workington Area meetings will take place on the second Monday and Carlisle and Penrith Meetings will take place on the second Wednesday of the month.
4. Also can I remind everyone about the £5 transfer and change of owner. This applies to any changes that occur during the open season. Includes when hounds change kennel for what ever reason, again a reminder that you should notify the secretary when any hound changes kennel anyway, any changes to owners or additions of owners.

Many Thanks

Good Luck to everyone this season

Fiona
