The 2012-2013 hunt season was a memorable one for the Green Creek Hounds. Polk County saw the return of the Red fox, so along with the greys and coyote there were very few blank days hunting.

The icing on the cake was the spring show season.  Green Creek Hounds competed in the Southern Hound Show in Monticello, Florida, the Carolina Hound show in Camden, South Carolina, and the Virginia Hound Show in Leesburg Virginia.

Green Creek Banker and Bankrupt were undefeated in the Couples Class, unentered English Dog, winning at all three shows.  Their littermate, Barbara was Champion English Bitch in Camden and Reserve Champion English Hound and Unentered Hound.  She and her sister, Banner, also won ribbons in the Couples class, as did many of the Green Creek Hounds in both English and the Crossbred rings.
