2010 Village Show Results
Austwick Village Show A G M 2010
The Annual General meeting of the Austwick Village Show was held on Tuesday 30th November 2010. Officers were elected as follows:
President: B Procter, Vice President: M Hird, Chairman: C Vaughan-Williams, Vice Chairman:
P Smith, Secretary: S Dewhirst, Treasurer: J Huck
Committee: A Dyson, S Fawcett, G Gooch, P Grimes, S Harrison, K Jowett, K Morphet, J Musgrave,
T Metcalfe, M Preston, F Southworth, C Teller.
The Secretary reported that membership of the Association in 2010 was encouraging and that entry numbers for last year’s show were pleasing with entries in most adult classes showing an increase. It was particularly encouraging to see several new entrants, either new to the show or returning after a few years absence. However, there was a slight decrease in numbers in the children’s section with seven less entries this year which could be explained by family holidays or fewer entries from the school.
The Treasurer reported a healthy financial balance. Sponsors and advertisers were thanked for their continued support.
Membership subscriptions will become due when placing entries for the show. Subscriptions are currently £2 for an individual member, which includes 11 entries for the adult classes and £4 for family membership, which includes 11 entries for adults and 22 for children.
The show this year will take place on Saturday August 6th and the outline schedule is below. The full schedule will be available in June/July. To get you thinking we have already chosen the themes for some classes and hope you will start your preparations early.
This year we have decided to change the age limit of the children’s section from 16 to 14 years of age. It is important that you read the instructions and rules carefully as the judges have the authority to disqualify any entries that are ‘not according to schedule’.
