A USEFUL CHECKLIST BEFORE ENTERING!

1.	Please read the directions in the Society’s hand book carefully, when deciding which class to enter. There have been unfortunate disqualifications due to exhibitors mistakenly entering the wrong class.

2.	Please take careful note of the number of vegetables, pieces of fruit or flower stems required for entries in particular classes. The judges will not accept incorrect entries.

3.	In the floral art classes, please take note of height and width limitations on arrangements and whether the arrangement is to be in a basket or simply a ‘container’.

4.	Please note that entries for the various classes in the Cookery section should, for purposes of hygiene and food safety, be covered in Clingfilm, or a glass dome . This may make a difference between First and Second and Third place.

5.	Please note that for the Spring and Autumn Shows, all adults wishing to exhibit at this show must submit their entry forms by the Friday evening before and at the absolute latest by midday on the day preceding the show. Under no circumstances will new entries be accepted on the day of the show. Children may, of course, submit their entries any time up to 10.00 am on the day of the Show.

6.	Entrants in the photographic classes are reminded that entries should be unmounted unless otherwise specified. It is acceptable to the judges to crop the photographs, if desired.
