Driving Trials at County Show in Worcestershire

It’s happening again!!

The Three Counties Show is once more welcoming our innovative and entertaining demonstration of driving trials in their main arena on Sunday June 20th.

As last year, there is a large arena available all day for an ‘outdoor/indoor’ trial and there will be an expanded version of last year’s obstacle in the main arena to inform and entertain the general public in the middle of the afternoon.

This is a great opportunity to promote our sport – we do need entries of all shapes and sizes to demonstrate the range of drivers and equines involved.  You are welcome to stay over on Saturday night, the entry fee is only £8 and there are CASH PRIZES.  The closing date for entries is April 28th, so please put this in your diaries now. For an entry form, contact Linda Sprosen by email at lindasprosen@hotmail.com, phone no. 01562 824350 or visit the Three Counties Show web site, www.threecounties.co.uk.

Once again, this is a joint enterprise between BHDTA, BDS, IHDT and Wolverley & District Driving Club (and anyone else who would like to offer help!)  Let us build on the success of last year and hope to enthuse more people to enjoy carriage driving.
