CAMPBELL TOWN SHOW 2013
An excellent display of Corriedales at the 2013 Campbell Town Show was judged by Tony Manchester, who with wife Judy and son John, obviously enjoyed their visit to Tasmania. Tony received excellent support from his steward, Noel Littlejohn.
Awards were evenly distributed between the four competing studs. Competition in the hogget classes was divided between newer studs Blackwood and Leamington, with Blackwood winning supreme champion junior ram and Leamington most successful exhibitor.
Andrew Nicolson, Streanshalh stud, who has been in poor health recently, received a boost in winning the Corriedale supreme champion ram.
