The Society is very proud to announce the Winners and Reserves in the EGCS Herd Competition Results for 2019 and congratulates all of our members who have won or have been placed Reserve in each competition. In a normal year these awards would be announced and the Cups, Prize Cards and Rosettes would be awarded at the Society Annual General Meeting but unfortunately this cannot take place this year because of the Covid 19 outbreak and the social distancing restrictions that have been put in place. The prize cards and rosettes for the Winners and Reserves will be sent out to them very shortly. Once again congratulations to you all.
