Top Nick Johnson - The Old Guard Steps Down It is with regret that we must inform you of the retirement of Nick Johnson from Hunt duties. Many of you will not know Nick but will have chased him across the country for many years. Nick has been our runner and trail layer for many seasons and has finally hung up his running shoes. We would like on behalf of everyone who has hunted with the Drag during his time to thank him for all his efforts as he could always be relied upon to turn out for us in all weathers. His knowledge of the country and expertise at this thankless task will be sorely missed. Photo by courtesy of www.digitalpicy.co.uk Nick has started a successful tree surgery business during his time as our runner and can now be found swinging from the trees chainsaw in hand in the local area. We wish him the best of luck with his business and hope he will keep in touch with the Drag. If you are interested in becoming a trail layer, please contact Andrew van Oostrum on: 07831 317165 The Masters of the SC & RMAS Drag Hunt Top New Supporters' Club Secretary It is also with regret that we must let you know that Carol Fricker has stepped down from her role as Supporters' Club Secretary. We would like to thank Carol for all her efforts whilst in this difficult role and especially for all the superb Hunt teas she has helped to provide. Photo by courtesy of www.digitalpicy.co.uk  Cath Brand, whom many of your are familiar with, has agreed to take over and we wish her every success in her new position. Cath is a hard riding subscriber who is beginning to help Andrew in the Field Master's role and will be an asset to the Supporters' Club hierarchy. She has been hunting with us for many seasons and is always willing to help where needed and also to encourage her boyfriend Richard with some of the more agricultural tasks that we occasionally need doing!
