Derby Canine Society was registered with the Kennel Club in 1922, therefore

next year will be our 85th anniversary.

There has been a lot of changes over the years and sadly many of our founder

members are no longer with us. They served for many years and finally

decided to retire and were then made “ Life Members” in honour of all their

dedicated hard work.

We have now one of our committee members been with the society for 30 years

Well done to Janice. When Janice first joined the President was a DR. Bowers

He took great interest in the society always making the effort to the AGM

meetings.

Open shows were quite different then, there was no catering and the committee

members had to prepare the meals for the judges which took up all their time

Exibitors had to bring their own food and drink, can you imagine that happening

today !!!!!

Things have really changed in the 85 years, some for the good, some not so good

But there is one thing that never changes Derby Canine Society tries very hard

to keep it a happy family, enjoyable and fun time
