Supporting Club Sales

[sapper756]

I have been asked to give a youngster to 2 clubs outwith my own club, for their young bird sales. I always support other clubs sales in this way, as well as my own club sale, however there are some who never support sales including their own clubs, but will take anything out of the club willingly :-/ what are you views on this?

It doesn't matter what you do there are always a small amount of members within every club who do nothing to support it.

They never donate to sales, don't attent events, never give raffle prizes etc etc, its sad but every club has them!

Its always the same Fanciers who give and Buy for the Worthy Causes.

we have a conflict in interest with dealers if they give its money lost??? fanciers give because their heart is in the sport as a whole ;; can you actually say you have been to dealers lofts and they have given you a bird but you can definitely say you have left fanciers loft with a bird

sounds bad as you say

but some have already over extended themselves with y/bs for sales /gifts etc

with some people struggling this year with breeding etc they just dont have the birds to give

not saying this is the case with your man.

A few years ago my mother  took over as of a small club, the sec had died, having been sec for nearly 70 years! The club had nothing apart from the essentials and the old secs twizzle stick for working out the results.

I decided to organise a sale for the club so they could buy a calculator etc, I wrote to all the studs advertiseing in the BHW and RP over a period of a month and only 1 even bothered to reply!

That to me summed up where the sport was heading 20yrs ago!

 

These studs may one day realise who puts money in there pockets!
