Thankfully the rain and thunder cleared and the sun came out for our Level 3 trial. Thank you to Rhona Meikle for judging and to June McPhillips for scribing. We had 7 competitors with 6 qualifiers and 1 Clean Sweep.
Starting with Exterior everyone got off to a good start with all getting both finds, one in a ramp and the other in a buoyancy aid. We moved on to Container with the hide in a square box and in the pocket of a chunky backpack and Jimmy and Holly finding both in under 23 seconds! The hide in the Vehicle search was in the driver’s front wheel arch on the third vehicle and in the end of the bumper on the second vehicle. The wind played a big part in this search with just 2 teams getting both. The Tables and Chairs search was last and the hide was in the back of the second chair and in under the window sill on the perimter. Avril and Mika took first place with 97.5 points and the only clean sweep. Jimmy and Holly took second place with 88 points. Tracey and Roxy took 3rd place with 87 points and Kevin and Roxy were 4th with 83 points.
Well done to all and a huge thank you to everyone for taking part, supporting each other and making it a great event.
