The Belted Galloway Society’s Council made the difficult decision at their spring meeting on May 6th to reschedule the World Galloway Congress into November of 2021.

The unanimous vote was made from feedback received from both US and International delegates. Concerns were expressed over potential flare-ups of the Coronavirus later this year, possible quarantines, travel restrictions and travel bans. With many venues, events and fairs being closed or canceled, it would have been difficult to provide a World Galloway Congress that delegates have come to expect. For those who had already paid and registered, a full refund is available or your funds can be transferred to the 2021 Congress. For updates, you can visit the website using the link below.
