BDS Trec  2008

Bennington Carriages are helping to sponsor BDS Trec for the 2008 season.
 

For 2008 there will be no BDS Trec National Championships, but Area Commissioners are to be encouraged to stage their own Regional Finals, so that more local qualifying turnouts can take part.

It is envisaged that the first two turnouts of any official event would qualify for their Regional Finals. Please contact your AC for more detail and to show your support
