Curly Comms
CCR Club Calendar Competition 2025
Don’t forget…?! We need beautiful photos of your puppies, your veterans, your working Curlies and the ultimate, goofy Curlies! Enter as many as you like! This year we would like to honour and recognise 125 years of the club so we are also really keen to see those Curlies through the decades, the older the better!
The photos will be short listed by the committee and then it will be YOU who will get to choose the final 12 that will go in the calendar.
Send your high resolution photos ( must be over 2mb please!) to curlyclubshop@outlook.com
Deadline for entry is 13th October 2024.

Great to see the youngsters out and about this week, and making lots of progress in their working careers…
Annabelle Wynn-Jones told us about Freda – Crimblescurl Dancing Queen, who is 14 months old.
‘She enjoyed her first full day out in the field yesterday, in the beating line on my favourite shoot in the Trough of Bowland, she performed brilliantly and didn’t put a foot wrong.‘
Kate Stead told us about Bridie – Firecurl Firefly, also 14 months old.
‘First day out this season, delighted with her as part of my picking up team in North Yorkshire.
