BASC has reached agreement with Lord Dunleath and Ballywalter Park estate to stage the BASC NI Game Fair at Ballywalter for the next three years, 2007-2009. This commitment is echoed by support from Ards Borough Council and should see the Game Fair continue to grow from strength to strength.
The BASC NI Game Fair is the first country fair of the season in the Province, and it belongs to you - BASC members. The Association paid a large sum of money to purchase the Fair. This was done to ensure that it provides a shop window for country sports, not only for our members but also for the widest possible public. We want to make sure it continues to do that, as it is only through demonstrating to mainstream public opinion that shooting is a valid, acceptable, and desirable part of life in Northern Ireland that we can hope to protect our sport for the future.
Members can help to ensure we succeed in this aim by offering assistance in a variety of ways. Sites for billboards; volunteering to help with set-up and stewarding of the event participation in the various competitions; sponsorship; or simply coming along and bringing your friends; all of these are ways to help ensure that your event continues to grow and thrive.
