The North Eastern Holstein Club recently enjoyed 3 well attended judging nights. All young members had a tough time judging an excellent choice of cattle, each host farm should be proud of the display of cows they had. Thanks goes to Helen Herd (Hebden Holsteins), Lee Graham (Heathersgill Holsteins) and Robert Butterfield (Ingleview Holsteins) for being Master Judges and Mark Day and family, Martin Petch and family and Metcalfe Farms for hosting all the judging nights. 

 

Results are as follows:

Junior: 1st Thomas Atkinson, 2nd Nick Metcalfe, 3rd Lucy Atkinson. 

Intermediate: 1st Gayle Robinson, 2nd Rob Metcalfe, 3rd Anna Goldie.
