The Shady Grove Field Trial Club held the first field trial at Camp Robinson for the fall 2023 season.

Due to a lot of work by the Arkansas field trialers, things are definitely looking up for Camp Robinson. Birds were found in almost every brace. These birds were released, purchased, and cared for by the Arkansas field trialers. Also, all mowing was done in September by four local guys using their own tractors. Harold Woodward oversaw the mowing. The coveys are huge and get gone.

Next year should be even better as we use the things we've learned over the years.
