Well that was a very changeable weekend for shooting, weather-wise!
Thursday morning’s snowfall and expectations of more, forced the cancellation of The Bowen Sporting Challenge, with the new, resheduled date being Sunday, April 16th at Dovey Valley. All bookings have been carried out to the same squad times on the new date-so if you couldn’t make it on the weekend, there’s still time to book for April 16th.
This was Dovey Valley on Thursday morning!
The good news is, that a lot of the weekend’s shoots did manage to be held and thanks to all the staff at these grounds!
