Club Report 2009

Thank you to all members who turned out for our flock visit too Meon Valley Texels in conjunction with the Gloucester shire club. Thank you to Simon Farmer and Frank Moffat and family for a great day and first class high tea.

Our NSA sale at Exeter has an excellent reputation and I am sure it is thanks to our breeders turning out some first class sheep. Champion went to the Loosebeare flock and reserve The Rolle Flock (aka The Chairman) both rams making 1000guineas.

John Williams was our judge this year for the flock competition, thank you to all who entered. A feel good factor for the club when the judge returned later in the year to purchase some stock.

A whole family input made for an excellent AGM at the Salocin flock home of the society’s new vice chairman, congratulations Nick and thank you for a great day all of you.

Our year ended with the annual Christmas dinner at the Bickleigh Mill restaurant where 30 plus members enjoyed a good social evening. Finally I would like to thank all the committee members for all their input throughout the year helping to keep our breed at the forefront within the sheep sector.
