Text Box: SPRING SHOW SUNDAY APRIL 27th, 2008 Wolvercote Village Hall Entry Procedure Entry forms are to be completed and handed in, with the entry fee during the week preceding the show and preferably by 7.00 p.m. on Friday 25th April to Kay Richardson, 57 Rosamund Road, and by the absolute latest to Kay Richardson by midday on Saturday 26th April. You may request and send back your entry form via email to purplepouting.fish06@yahoo.co.uk. However, email is not infallible, so please ensure that you have received a confirmation reply from Kay. Under no exceptions will new entries be accepted on the morning of the show Children's entry forms are acceptable on the day, however as we are having more entries it is really helpful to have them before hand. Exhibits should be brought to the Village Hall between 9.00 and 10.15 a.m. on the morning of the Show. In the following classes, where more than one specimen is requested, uniformity is what we are looking for i.e., alike in size, form and colour. Hint: Exhibits should be fresh, clean, free from blemish and any damage. Flowers: Make sure that they are firm in the vase and taking up water. Vegetables: Be careful when lifting from the garden With parsnips, carrots etc., try not to break off that fine long tail. Parsnips, carrots, beans, beetroot etc. are usually just laid out on the show table, but potatoes, tomatoes, shallots, peppers etc. are best placed on a plate, a paper one will do. Shallots look better mounted on dry sand and onions on a ring. Better to leave clean roots on cabbages and lettuces, they will keep fresh longer. All varieties of beans and peas should be displayed with stalks attached. Fruits and berries should have stalks intact and should not be polished. Introducing the BEST of the BEST category If you think, you have a very good entry for any of the vegetable, fruit and flower categories listed below, then why not exhibit it here in this new class. 1 specimen is all that is needed other than berries which will require 3 specimens. Presentation will be the same as described in the rest of this schedule. Now this is the different bit, Entry will cost £1 per exhibit This money will then be shared amongst 1st, 2nd and 3rd places and a contribution will go to the WHS show kitty, which could be used to get another trophy if this
