CONGRATULATIONS - 2007 SHOW
The Show Committee, at their show debrief were joined by 2007 joint Presidents Gary and June Sullivan, also Henry and Barbara Sandon. Henry had both opened the Show and valued some items brought along for him to see. Show Chairman Bridget Lewis congratulated the Committee on another superb event as evidenced by the funds raised for local good causes. Henry Sandon, who had travelled all the way from recording an episode of the BBC Antiques Roadshow in Exeter that day to join the meeting praised the Show and expressed just how enjoyable it was.
Our treasurer Jonathan Wilkinson revealed that we exceeded all previous sums of money raised. This money was distributed between Alfrick Church, the Village Hall and 22 different beneficiaries including playgroups and schools in the area, Brownies, Guides and Venture Scouts as well as cricket and football clubs. The Show also supports the British Red Cross, Royal British Legion, Rural Stress Network (a farming charity), Worcestershire Wildlife Trust, RNLI and Guide Dogs for the Blind.

Quotes:
Bridget Lewis (Chairman):“Everyone had a wonderful day, the atmosphere was really good and of course the Spitfire flypast really did steal the limelight, people haven’t stopped talking about it since!”
“We were delighted to welcome Henry Sandon (and Barbara) back to the 2007 Show. A big thank you too goes to our loyal supporter Mike George of BBC H&W who compered the main arena events and announcements during the day”
Jonathan Wilkinson (Treasurer): “ The amount raised this yearshows a significant increase on last year’s total and means we have once again raised the bar and achieved an amazing result. Despite increases in running costs we have easily beaten all previous records, as shown above. A major achievement by our small community.
Gavin Lewis (Programme and Advertising):The crowds were enormous, and the weather was just perfect having suffered gales and torrential rain the previous year. Our new look, all colour programme, was well received. Thanks must go to the Malvern Gazette for helping to promote the event. A big thank you also to BBC Hereford and Worcester who do much to support us. The 2008 Show will take place on Saturday 6th September, so look out for our big yellow signs and come along to have a really great day.”
Hope to see you this year!
