Newsletter - September 2010

 

What a brilliant show we had on Saturday 14 August.  There were plenty of good quality entries in the classes despite such a tricky growing season and it was good to see several new people having a go for the first time. We were pleased to welcome an amazing number of visitors in the afternoon.  A full write up with pics is on the Events page.
