Show Manager’s Report of Ron Norman 2024
Last Sunday, July 7, saw the annual running of our major show for any age birds with the 75th staging of the Ron Norman Show at the Westbourne Park Memorial Hall.
With 230 entries we were down by over 100 on last year which was a bit disappointing but what was lacking in quantity was made up for in quality, with the standard of birds on the show bench just getting better every year.
Although we were down by 4 Open and 2 Intermediate exhibitors, it was very pleasing to see that our Novice breeders were strongly represented once again with 9 breeders showing. The Ron Norman was run in April last year and it is always a challenge for the committee to find the right timing to suit our members with breeding, moulting, Nationals, personal commitments, etc. playing a part in everyone’s ability to get birds ready for a show.
Ian Marshall did a fantastic job as our Major Award judge on the day and I thank him for his efforts together with those of the more than capable Floor Judges in Kelwyn Kakoschke, Malcolm Loveridge, and Sherrilee Reardon. This team of judges would have to be one of the most experienced that we’ve had for some time.
The Winners!
Ken and Janet Harris won back to back Grand Champions with a Normal Grey cock bird while Sue Adams won Reserve Champion Cock and 4th Champion Cock. George England won Reserve Champion Hen and 4th Champion Hen while Marie and Kerry Murphy took out 3rd Champion Cock and 3rd Champion Hen.
Congratulations to Jane Kelb who cornered the market taking out all three Major Awards at the Intermediate level.
Our Champion Novice bird was benched by Danny Brill with Peter Brumby and Trevor Goodenough winning Reserve Champion Novice Cock and Hen respectively.
A special mention for Pauline Lampre who achieved her first award with best Pet Budgie.
Congratulations to all class winners and to all exhibitors.
Thanks to everyone who helped out on the day especially the Stewards, and Marie for organizing the lunch.
Our next Show will be the Interclub Challenge which will be taking the format of a young bird show (red rings) for the first time. Let’s all support this new format and get behind it with as many entries as possible.
George England
