Best score for local shearer on the day went to Erick Klabe.
It was very pleasing to see such great support from the spectators on both days. A little hiccup Saturday with the power but with a small delay we got a generator and we were back in action. I would like to thank all the shearers who participated and some who travelled many hours to be here.
Thanks to our judges, timekeepers, roustabouts, penner uppers, our many sponsors, our busy secretary and scorer Jaimie Mayled and our committee members who all put in a lot of time and effort into running two successful show shearing events. Thanks to Wayne and Lorraine Jenkyn for supplying the sheep and to Trevor and Deidre Tarrant for carting the sheep in and back.
Many thanks to the shearers and draggers and the graziers who help shear around 350 Dorset rams from which all the money goes into having such good prize money for both days.
