🌟 Highlights from the Ron Norman 2025 Show Results

The Ron Norman Annual Show 2025 was a resounding success, and we’d like to recognise some standout moments and thank those who made it possible:

• Holmes Family benched the Grand Champion in Show, a superb achievement and a testament to their ongoing dedication to excellence.

• Peter Brumby took out Champion Novice and also had a bird feature in the Top 7 Major Awards—a fantastic effort, well done Peter!

• A heartfelt thank you to George England for the countless hours spent organising and coordinating the show. Your commitment does not go unnoticed.

• Our gratitude also goes to the judges and stewards, especially Malcolm Loveridge, who travelled all the way from Moonta Bay to help adjudicate—thank you for your time and expertise.

• Sue and Ian ran a brilliant Come & Try event, generating plenty of public interest and enthusiasm. It was a true highlight and bodes well for next year’s shows.

• Brice, Tom, and Steve were at the hall from 8 a.m. sharp to set up the staging—your early start ensured everything ran smoothly. Thank you!

• Wayne went above and beyond to bring the trading table—a job that takes real effort and a strong sense of community. We’re incredibly grateful.

• Our Novice members turned out in force with over 140 birds benched—an outstanding contribution and a sign of a thriving future. Congratulations to you all.

• Marie and her team prepared a delicious lunch and dessert for everyone to enjoy—thank you for keeping us well fed and happy.

And finally, to everyone who attended, including those who didn’t have birds entered but came simply to help or support the day—thank you for being part of such a magnificent event.

👏 Congratulations to all exhibitors and thank you for supporting the 2025 Ron Norman Show. We look forward to seeing you again next year!
