Going to Belgium
This weekend I participated in the Atlantic Young Breeder's School, some of you from Quebec may be familiar with this school as it has taken place in Quebec for the last few years. Anyways, I won the school as an individual and also as a member of my team which also won. As an individual prize I received a trip to a National(?) Show in Belgium. And my team members have each won half our trip payed to the RAWF, but they said I had to choose one, so I am leaning towards the all expense paid trip to Belgium. I never asked any questions about it as I had to leave soon after the awards presentation to come home. I was wondering if anybody knows what the show is called, and who has been there before. Tell me how it is, and even what time of year it is. I was given no information, and did not have time to even ask any questions. Also are there any cowtalkers from Belgium? Any information about this show would be appreciated, all I've heard is that this is the 10th year that Canada has sent a participant over, and to celebrate 10 years, they decided to send 2 instead of one. I really have no idea what I'm getting into here, I'm just excited to have the opportunity to cross the Atlantic.
