WCRA Golden Anniversary / 50 Years Celebrations
We will be offering the opportunity for people to sponsor one or more weight groups in the Main Championships, Veteran Crowns and Veteran Superstars Sprint.
The cost for sponsorship will be £10 per group per Championships or £30 for all 4 Championships for 1 group. There will be an option to commemorate a person or dog for a specific weight group or groups which will be published and displayed in the Program accordingly.
We also have an exciting new Competition specially for the 50th Anniversary – a sweepstake.
The winner will be drawn on the day of each Championship and presented with a voucher for an artist portrait drawing for one of your dogs worth over £50. The artist will use a photo of your choosing or we can take a photo on the day of the draw.
The tickets will be £2 each and available only before the day either with the entry form for the Championships or apply separately to Mark Etheridge for 1 or more tickets. More details will be published in due course.
