FLOWER, FRUIT AND VEGETABLE SHOW 3RD SEPTEMBER

IMG_0008

This year’s Show was another outstanding success with a massive 604 entries of which 166 were from 37 different children! The Hall looked spectacular and the judges yet again commented on the very high standard of all the exhibits.

The Show was opened by Janet Mitchell who is retiring from the Committee after 30 years and as Secretary since 1997 when she took over from Marcia Northcroft. Introducing Janet, the Flower Show Society Chairman Colin Payne thanked her on behalf of the Committee for all her hard work over the years and wished her the very best for the future. The huge appreciation of the Village was evident from the warm applause from everyone present.

Janet passes on her thanks to everyone who took part in such a great village event and said it was good to see the mix of experienced and novice exhibitors.

She also adds that any child who did not get their certificate yesterday should let her know and she will get one to them. You should either mail Janet on jm4mfs@btinternet.com or phone on 02380813484.

Thanks must also go to the other members of the Committee and all those in the community who worked so hard to make the Show such a success.
