The VIRC held its AGM in early January where the executive was appointed for the coming year: Lorne Parker president, Kevin Ashfield vice-president, Linda Page secretary, Amanda Wannop treasurer, and Rick Roberts taking over the picnic trial chair position.
The field trials are set for 2025 starting with the May long weekend in the Comox Valley, June 28-30 in Logan Lake, and September 27-28 at Swallowfield.
Check the VIRC calendar for upcoming training days and picnic trials. You can find all the British Columbia field trials and hunt tests (including HRC) on the BCARTC website.
Congratulations to Bill Pearson and “Tip” for receiving the Molly Moss Trophy for the club member dog earning the most field trial points in the year (any stake). This team also earned the Hi-Point Junior Field Trial Dog in Canada and the BCARTC Hi-Point Junior Dog award.

And thank you to all the volunteers who help throughout the year! Good luck in 2025. Happy training!
