The Show enjoyed another great doy weather wise. bringing In large numbers of vlsitors. so much so we were running out of parking spaces. The chair opened up one of his fields near the show ground to help keep the highway dear. Trade stands were up slightty on previous years and all seemed to enjoy a fruitful day. many wrote to thank the show afterwards. The general entries remained good, with sheep still bel￿ super tKipular and young handler classes being well supported. The show didn't have an official attraction this year, but instead asked show jumper Richard Nicholl to give a show jumpin8 demonstration which was well re￿Ived by spectator5. This year, the handicraft and horticulture tent asked for a grant to hire a marquee which was a little wider than the normal tent. This turned out to be a huge Suc￿sS the handicraft settion were thrilled to bits with how it all flowed so much better on the day. Having the two sections under the same roof with dfviding wall also worked really well. The Cumberland and Westmorland wrestling was moved to more level a￿a on the field by the collerting rin8. and entries were good with the wrestling runnin8 over until after 5pm.
