This past weekend, at the Highland Trial Grounds in South East Michigan, the Grand Valley Bird Dog Club held the region#4 Amateur Championship. The weather was cooler, but the grounds were challenging as ever with the lush growth keeping everybody at bay. The 1 hour coarse was selected by Jimmy Cipp, additional cutting was invested in by the Grand Valley and Highland field trial clubs. The Judges Larry (da Judge) Sutter and David Havlin stood sound in the saddle as both handler and dog cut their way through the fauna of the Highland grounds, water tubs were put out on the grounds.
In the end a Champion was named "One Shot Remington" handled and owned by Greg Hilla, who was gracious and reserved! also no RU Champion named.
Dinner was provided by Ron Chef Sposita, his offering was kindly sponsored by Brian Wood who's dog was named Champion in 2011, the last time the Championship was held at Highland Field Trial Grounds-
