Refund Information #1
Hi All,
We trust that this email finds everyone safe and well.
As you may be aware, and in accordance with the Fair Trading Act, the club was not obliged to offer refunds of entry fees for our cancelled shows, however, the club felt that it was in the best interest of our exhibitors and the club to offer full, or partial, refunds, at the request of the exhibitor.
To date many of you have taken up the clubs offer, with many of you opting to donate part, or in some cases, all of those entry fees to the club. These donations will go a long way in helping the club through these financially difficult times and ensure our future in the years to come. To those exhibitors who have been able to assist we thank you. Your generosity is greatly appreciated and will be put to good use in preparation for our 2021 shows.
However, as the ‘End Of Financial Year’ is fast approaching the club needs to finalise the accounts for the year. With this in mind we regret to advise that there will be a ‘close off date’ for any further refund requests.
For those exhibitors who still require a refund but have not already requested a refund you will need to have your request ‘in the clubs hands’ for processing no later than April 30, 2020. After this date (April 30, 2020) no further requests for a refund will be accepted.
So, if you require a refund, please have your request in as soon as possible and avoid any disappointment.
Wishing you all the best for the months ahead.
Regards,
Dorrigo Kennel Club
Refund Information
Due to the decision made by DOGS NSW to cancel all dog shows until after at least the 13th April 2020 Dorrigo and District Kennel Club Inc. will not be holding the show set down for 28th and 29th March 2020.
As this is an ongoing health crisis the club has made the decision to not have a show in 2020.
This decision is not taken lightly, as it has a major financial impact on the club, having already committed significant financial resources to this year’s shows.
Apart from the ‘normal’ pre-show expenses, the airfares for our judging panel are of particular concern, being a significant outlay, the costs of which are neither fully recoverable nor transferable.
As you can appreciate this year has placed an unusual burden on the club and it’s financial situation. Apart from the Dogs NSW decision to cancel all shows pending a review in April, we, as a club, have had the added burden, and subsequent costs, of the postponement of our shows, due to flooding, from their original dates in February.
With this in mind, the club is making an appeal to all our exhibitors for their assistance to assure the clubs future.
The club would greatly appreciate any assistance you can provide, so, if you are able to assist by donating some of your entry fees to carry the club through this trying time you can do so by sending us your refund request, indicating how many entry fees you would like to donate.
If you wish to secure a full/partial refund please send a copy of your Show Manager receipt to nonna@aapt.net.au and it will be processed in due course.
We wish all our exhibitors a safe journey through this health crisis and look forward to our renewed association in 2021.

Change Class #1
How to Change Class
This article will tell you how you can change your class if your dog is no longer eligible for the original class you entered. You will need to make this change on each individual show. https://showmanager.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/202835370-How-do-I-change-my-Class-or-Dog-after-I-have-paid-for-my-entries-
If you dog was in the baby class and is now older the system will give you a warning about the cost of the class being different. This will be OK and the club has advised that there will be no need to pay for the difference in the cost of the class.
