2026 is our 50th year!
This year’s Show, on Saturday 15th August in the church, promises to be a memorable occasion.
- We have a ‘golden’ theme, with a marquee showing previous years programmes and photos from the last 50 years along with newspaper articles recording previous show glories and winners.
- There are colouring competitions for children underway now, with winning entries on display on Show day.
- There will be balloons and bunting inside the church, themed classes and we’re running a free raffle for all adults who enter something into the Show, with the winner getting £50!
- It’s going to be a great afternoon, make sure you come and enjoy the Show, which opens at 2.30pm.
- The auction, at 5pm’ish is not to be missed, so even if you can’t make the Show we’d love to see you at the auction, which is always entertaining.
Our Show provides an opportunity for everyone to showcase their talents and enjoy some local competition. There are classes for adults and children, ranging from vegetables and flowers to handicrafts, photography, cakes, jam, spirits, and wines. Entries are anonymous unless you win, ensuring no embarrassment!
