Chinbrook Dog Show 31st August 2014

About the Dog show. - (A statement from their website)

The Chinbrook Dog Show was set up in 2012 by our Chairman, as a small experimental community project to organise and administer a dog show and Family Fun Day within Chinbrook Meadows. As it was a first attempt, it was deliberately kept low key in order to gauge interest, if any, from the community. What occurred exceeded all expectations, with more than 150 dogs and their owners taking part. Some even came from as far away as Worthing, Walthamstow and Enfield!

South East Dog Rescue was the chosen charity for the first 2 years. The success of the show led to the formation of the Chinbrook Dog Show Management Committee, consisting of an elected Chair, Treasurer and Secretary. These officers plus an additional 4 members make up the Executive Committee.

Our group is a non-profit organisation. All monies raised – outside operational costs and expenses – will be donated to a local dog-related charity or rescue centre that operate a non-destruct policy.

In 2013, we made the decision to expand the Dog Show into a Fun Day for all the family, not just exclusively centre around dog owners, as we felt there was nothing else similar within the Grove Park area. Some of the local businesses were very supportive and helped contribute towards our costs.

We included a family funfair and a number of local community groups, such as the Territorial Army, joined in the fun. Sadly the weather took a turn for the worse, with a few heavy showers during the mid afternoon. This didn’t dampen our spirits, and we still managed to raise £1200 for South East Dog Rescue.

For this year’s show on 31 August 2014, we wanted to go bigger and better, and planning started the day after the 2013 show. We don’t want to give away too much, but we are getting really excited!
