After a recent meeting, in response to over 250 emails from show organisers who have had to cancel shows due to the terrible weather and competitors who cannot obtain a qualification it has been decided that for this year we will make the National Summer Championships an Open show!
Anybody that has qualified, still send your card in as all people that have qualified will be given a 10% discount on entry fees, this will be paid back to you at the show ground from the show office, Qualified competitors will be given preference regarding class numbers.
Entries, to enter the show please print off the summer qualifying card from the website www.thefestivalassociation.co.uk fill it out and post, the same as you would with a normal entry form. Closing date for pre entries is the 30th July, NQ classes and entries on the day will be accepted – weather – class numbers – time permitting.
Class numbers; because of the possibility of parking restrictions we will be limiting class numbers and do recommend that you send your entries in sooner rather than later.
Not before times; we will NOT be printing not before times for this show but rather a time for a block of classes, say classes 1-5 will start at say 8am, classes 6-10 at 9.30am, this will help the judges to move on with the outside classes. THE NEW SUMMER PROGRAM WITH TIMES WILL BE ON THE WEBSITE BY THE 17TH JULY.
Parking; we recommend that you only arrive at the showground 30mins before your block time. For any more information please keep looking on facebook Festival of Champions, www.thefestivalassociation.co.uk, email foc2005@aol.com or call 07904 029560.
