| 2010 Press Release |
| |
Visitors to the 2010 Woodhall Spa Country show were greeted by brilliant sunshine tempered by a gentle breeze – 'The best weather the show has ever had', according to Show Committee chairman John Michael. Mr Michael added that, although final attendance figures were not yet known, it was likely to prove to be the best attended Woodhall Show since the event restarted five years ago.
Record entries of cattle sheep and horses meant that the livestock end of the new showground was a constant bustle of activity, and a last minute change of the main ring programme to include the shire horse judging met with the strong approval of a large crowd gathered at the ring-side.
"They are such lovely animals", one bystander commented, "and it was a special treat to see that ten-day old foal – he was beautiful!"
Trade stand numbers were up this year, and stand-holders reported a lot of interest from the crowds. Hot food vendors did comment that sales, although satisfactory, were a little down on cooler years, but ice-creams and bottles of water were in constant demand.
This was the first year on the new showground a little further away from the village, and although Secretary Sue Stennett admitted that there had been occasional confusion about changed arrangements, she had been pleased with the overall response from both visitors and exhibitors.
"We will have to make some changes for next year" she said, "but the general plan worked well and we had no major crises."
Parking would certainly have been a problem on the old showground, but the increased area available made it possible to accommodate the extra vehicles, and the one way system operated through Mill Lane and Green Lane seemed to work well.
"It was the only safe way to keep the traffic moving, but it would have inconvenienced some residents, and we would like to thank them for their cooperation," said safety officer Richard Pick. |
