2009 Show - 17 October 2009

Turnout for this year's show was even better than last year. There were entries ranging in size from 2 oz to 88lbs and an incredible array of decorated pumpkins. Thanks very much to everyone who helped including the Evans family for refreshments, Jaqui for selling raffle tickets, Andy for all the paperwork, Wendy from Kenyons, ably assisted by Graham, for judging (a very difficult task), Ian for some heavy lifting and everyone who brought prizes for the raffle and who supported the event by entering and coming along on the day. All the overheads and prizes were sponsored so your donations which totalled £276.69, go straight to our village playgroup.

Jonathan's magnificent marrow went on the the show at the Bear and Ragged Staff where it won the pot for the biggest marrow by miles. It is the biggest marrow that has ever been entered in that show in over 20 years. Well done!
