Show Details

The Leslie Ornithological Society is classified as a Regional Show.

Not only Regional but we are an Open Show which means that you do not need to be a member of the Leslie Ornithological Club to enter the show.

However non members will not be issued with Gold or Silver awards, but they can be given a Bronze award.

The show is held once a year, usually the Second Sunday in December in the Victoria Community Hall in the Coaltown of Balgonie, Glenrothes, Fife.

The closing date for entries is eight days before the date of the show. Any entries submitted after this date are made at the discretion of the secretary.

The day before the show a group of Volunteers come together to set up the show.

Exhibiters can then pen their entries between 7pm and 9pm on the Saturday Evening or between 8:30am and 9:45am on the Sunday Morning.

Judging commences at 9:45am so all entries should be penned before this time.

The show closes at 3pm and once the entries have been removed from the pens by their owners, the team of volunteers begin to dismantle the show and return the hall to normal.

We greatly appreciate any help with the show and the more volunteers we have the easier and quicker the work gets done - if you would like to volunteer please let us know when you submit your entry for the show.
