Well we were back at The Royal County Cheshire Show with a vengeance. Its no mean feat to put something like this together and we had lots of members from across the Federation helping in some capacity to ensure it runs smoothly. We may feel like ducks paddling like mad underwater but on the surface we are as calm as can be.
Our wonderful entries in our much simpler but still challenging schedule meant that members who had never entered before felt confident to have a go and we had an increase in numbers. There was many placed entries and as usual our cooperative entries really pushed the boat out with their imagination and standard. Here are the cup winners. Whitegate WI won several classes for their Co-operative entry (see below). We are sure you will agree their entry is stunning.
Our much loved Refreshments area was missed by members and the public last year but with the help of the Agricultural Society we had a much larger space. So many Stewards helped provide refreshments and these photos are only a few. Thank you.
Here are quiet a few photos that give a ‘flavour’ of what members of the WI, friends, family and the public came to see. How amazing.
And how many members does it take to look after the exhibits for two days and assist the judges. Its a lot more than you think. Thank you to all the volunteers for your time and commitment.
And after visiting the WI marquee there was plenty to do out on the showground.
