The Council decided that the 2012 National Dorper show will take place in Pretoria from 27 August to 2 September 2012.
This decision should still be confirmed at the AGM 28 July 2011, but everyone is looking forward to take the Dorper National Show once again to Pretoria.

Inspectors and Judges Day 2011-06-01

INSPECTION - PRACTICAL








We had a very Successful Inspectors and Judged day at De-Aar. This year we did some practical work on Dorpers the day before the actual meeting.











Many Issues were discussed and the functionality of the Dorper sheep came under the loop. It was also interesting to see that when it came to classing a dorper almost everyone agreed on what type the ram/ewe should be.




That evening we all "braai" together and had a great time.







The next day we had a very fruitful meeting and addressed issues like judges excams, Inspectors contracts, Senior Dorper excams and many more.


Everyone agreed that it was a great success.

On Monday when we arrived, Naas, Wicus en Ben came to help me for the 1st two days, and when the Cronje's had to leave, Free State Club send reinforcements in the form of Garry Simon and Kobus Malherbe.











It was the busiest Nampo ever and we seldom had a change to relax. Our exhibition had many visitors from overseas and locally. Thank you to the Free State Dorper Club and all the visitors who made this a huge success.
