HURST HORSE SHOW AND COUNTRY FAYRE

The 28th Hurst Horse Show and Country Fayre held on 23rd and 24th June was again a great success. There was a lot of hard work behind the scenes and the committee wishes to thank all the Hurst villagers who helped before, during and after the show. Without this sort of help, the show just simply could not go on.

This year we welcomed over 4,000 visitors. The weather was glorious on the Saturday and even though it rained on the Sunday, we still had a very good turn out. Following the show, we were able to distribute a total of £12,000 to local deserving charities and of course our main beneficiary, St Nicholas School.

The pre and post show publicity is worthy of a mention, as it really was the best ever with many features in local papers and coverage via two radio stations, not to mention ITV!

Next year

The show dates for your diary are 28th and 29th June 2008. The committee chairman, Duncan Kendall, who did a grand job this year, continues into his second year.

Planning starts in January 2008. If you would like to be part of the committee and help shape your village show, then please contact Duncan Kendall via the website www.HurstHorseShow.org.uk.
