(And that is without even mentioning the main ring, show jumping, vintage tractors, food stalls, farmers' market, licensed bar........) We look forward to seeing you again on August 30th, 2020 |
CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE FOR 2019
We are very much looking forward to seeing you at our 13th annual show on Sunday August 25th, 2019. Those of you who joined us last year may remember it was a little wet, but everyone I’ve spoken to who was there has said they had a great time, despite the weather. We are of course hoping for better this year, but come rain or shine we will put on a good day. We’ll have cattle, sheep and 3 rings ofhorse classes, as well as a dog show, stick making, vintage vehicles, scarecrows and fancy dress competitions. Garden and craft classes, run by the Garden Society, will be in the village hall. Bwlch & Crickhowell YFC’s tea and cake tent outside the hall will provide you with a place to sit and catch your breath while building your strength to have a go at hanging a farm gate or tossing a bale. Alongside the competitions we have the farmers’ market marquee and demonstration tent, a range of trade stands, and shearing and spinning demonstrations. The main ring will be busy with attractions that are popular every year, including Black Mountains Falconry and new for this year will be fun ferret racing and a demonstration of gun dog skills. A wide range of food stands and licensed bar will help to complete your day out. Join us in the YFC bar and shearing marquee for a fun filled evening of Speed Shearing starting at 5pm. This has been a great crowd pleaser in previous years and regardless of the weather is a very entertaining way to end your busy day at Llangynidr Show. The event is run by an excellent team of volunteers, both those on the year-round organising committee and the many others who come along before, during and after the show to help out. As the new Chairman this year, I am immensely grateful to all of them for their ongoing support. I would also like to express my sincere thanks to the landowners, sponsors, advertisers and vice-presidents without whom we couldn’t run. And of course thank you to you, the competitors and visitors who make Llangynidr Agricultural Show such an enjoyable and interesting day. We look forward to seeing you all in August. Diolch yn fawr - Thank you very much. Brian Cope |
