What an asset to the driving calendar. Well done and a huge thank you to all involved. So good to be back - I do hope it's a keeper now. |

Good to see that competitors and spectators enjoyed the "New Lowther". The comments on here and on the BC facebook page are all very positive. As a competitor I would like to thank the Lowther Estate for giving us the opportunity to compete at Lowther once again. The castle and the new arena provided a wonderful backdrop for the Taken Photography team and section A gave some magnificent views for the drivers, Section E was I feel a huge success... it certainly helped my horse and I keep our minds focused! A huge thank you to everyone involved in the Thursday night reception and Saturday night party...Dave Stafford and his band helped make it a very memorable night. Thank you to the Bowman family, their team of helpers and Countryman Fairs for all their hard work. Sarah Meredith Hopefully Lowther will once again become part of our future national driving calender. |

In the photos section there is a wonderful photo of George Bowman competing against a carousel. |

Wonderfully scenic section A and a real brain-teaser for section E. Enormous amount of work put in by a lot of people. Thank you! Jay + 1 |

As a spectator it was fantastic - apart from the fact we couldn't SEE later in the day as it was so busy - crowds of people watching! This can only be a good thing and hopefully it will be back next year, with grandstands Well done everyone involved, a great show all round - wish I'd been competing. |

It was my first national event competing and it was brilliant so relaxed and friendly. As Patti says section A's views were brilliant, mind the water crossing was deep and rough in places. Thanks to all those that has worked so hard to get the Lowther Event back on the map.. |

It was fantastic to be back at Lowther. A brilliant event with the most perfect Sec A views and 7 great hazards. A huge THANK YOU to all that made it possible - it wont have been an easy task but you made it work. Roll on next year. |
