At the Christmas show A, judge CherylBlackman of Texas awards the Best In Show to Betty's English Angora tort doe Raelynne.



 
In show B, judge Cole Rupprecht of Minnesota also selects Betty's English Angora tort doe Raelynne as the Best In Show.

Raelynne enjoys her three awards from the RPSCV, two Best In Show boxes and a Reserve In Show plaque.




Here is a closer look at the three awards.  They are very nicely done, a member of the RPSCV must have spent a lot of time on painting them.  Betty and Raelynne appreciate the win as well as the effort in presenting these prizes.
