Salukifan Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 (edited) I contacted the Main Show secretary on Monday who passed my questions along to the Dog show secretary. Apparently they are watching the grounds and are going to make (and widely publish) a decision on whether the dog section will go ahead later this week. Personally I'd not be getting my hopes up. I reckon the dog rings were probably under water at some stage, if not still. Wendy Edited March 6, 2012 by Telida Whippets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poocow Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Thanks Wendy Apparently at this stage the horse events are still going ahead so hopefully the dog rings are ok too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog rings are a lot lower/closer to the river. Yes dog grounds much closer to creek, and the creek was really raging .... some great shots on fb... We also had a cabin booked in the caravan park there.... not sure that's happening either ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, its a bummer to lose entry money but I'd rather be out of pocket than see the Show's books in the red and potentially more dog sections cancelled.

Joan of Arc Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I have just spokent to the people with the caravan park and she tells me there is very very little damage at Adelong, they were very lucky. She says the locals are very keen for the show to go ahead and they are predicting fine weather for them.... See you all Sunday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
