its the same every year with the opens and every year people say the same thing.. theres too many. but as trojan said these opens do bring in revenue. i know @ wallsend we now make some money off the food this helps immensly towards the rent & public liabitly. i dont think clubs will stop putting opens on.

Sorry to pick your post out Carole but i feel i need to point out where this open is different.

Since the George Hartley Open came into existance in 2003 the club has subsidised the open.

Every year we've given trophies to every class winner (the only other events i know do this are the championships) this year came in relatively cheap at just under £200 plus certificates.

All the entry money is given back into equal payout plus more besides as well as the dog & bitch winners receiving extra.

The supreme trophies are classy, not tinny cheap crap you get elsewhere and they have always been there for the winner to receive.

Every supreme gets a presentation jacket this year to the tune of £120

We've had additional sponsorship over the years from Tom Peppercorn, Wafcol, Premarket, K9world, Royal Canin, Chudleys.

6 days camping free of charge

The lure money doesn't get taken out from the entry money

We have a sweepstake so that people who aren't racing can get involved.

The track is good, better than most we've ran on this year and it is fully fenced off.

The classes are different from the predictable weight splits we see week after week

The format as has proved time and time again can be won by a dog of any weight and 5 dog blanket finishes are a regular occurance.

We have two trained canine first aiders as members along with an adept photographer.

We even give recognition to pedigree whippets who are schooling our non peds by providing competative racing for them along with consolation to ensure people are getting "their moneys worth".

As far as dates go we've always taken what's given to us which has worked out to be the second weekend in July for as long as i can remember.

I accept fuel prices are through the roof which is hitting everyone hard and i know there's a lot of dogs suffering with injuries but theres more to this lack of entries than meets the eye.

Over the last couple of years our members have travelled the length and breadth of the country to support other clubs/opens and to take on different dogs. We have travelled to opens to go on to win payout/trophies that could only be described as an embarrassment, tracks that aren't worthy of top ten status and badly organised opens.
