Summer Show, 29th July 2006
The Show, held in St. Nicholas Church Centre, Belmont Grove, Bedhampton, proved very popular this year with 240 entries in the various classes. It was well supported with some 101 visitors and busy throughout the day.
The venue proved to be very conveniently situated and with good facilities and easy parking. Thanks to Geoff Tanton, Show Manager, and his team for organising a successful event. And also a big “thank you” to all exhibitors, judges and supporters, there wouldn’t be a show without you!
