Pentangle

After painstakingly deliberating, the Executive Committee have decideed that this year we are not sending a team to the Pentangle.
A lot of time and effort has been expended in attempting to contact the organisers of this historical shoot and when contact was eventually made, we were notified that the shoot is to be incorporated into another event.
Due to the lack of communication and demands being placed on entries, the County are unable to select a team for 2017.  Please accept our sincere apologies for the lateness in communicating this information to you.

Good Luck for Stage 2.
