The annual Star and Garter - Village Veg / Cake & Flower Show will be held on Monday 6 September.

It may well still be seven months away but now is the time for all you would-be gardeners / flower arrangers or cooks to get in on the act.

Despite advertising the event here in this magazine a year ago, the winning entries again had the familiar names, so come on everyone, give them a little bit more competition.

As stated, the event is on the first Monday of September in the Star and Garter with the closing time for all entries 12.00 noon. The entries are then judged while a free buffet is partaken of. Then follows the auction of the produce together with a raffle. All proceeds go to a local organisation (to be decided).

The categories are as follows:
Veg: Best Onion / Best Marrow / Best Tray of Veg / Children's Novelty Veg
Baking: - Best Sponge / Best Fruit Cake / Best Fruit Pie / Best decorated cake / Children's Novelty Cake / Best Flower Arrangement

For any further information contact Butch - 01526 320317

Woodhall Spa Country Show is moving to a new site for the 2010 show on Sunday 23 May.

The show's success has grown since its re-launch in 2006, with this year seeing it moving down Green Lane to a new site.

The new show field has a much larger capacity to enable it to continue growing as the old field had started to become overwhelmed by the show's own success.

A larger car parking area has already been designated for visitors, which is adjacent to the show field at no additional cost to visitors.

This year's show focuses on Dairy and Transport through the Ages as the main feature, plus new displays and attractions including a static display from Woodside Falconry and a Gun dog display.

Organisers are already well into the planning stages for this year's show and are inviting all entries for classes from livestock to tractors & Vehicles to trade & craft stands.

Anyone requiring further information should contact the Show Secretary or visit the Woodhall Spa website and use the link for Woodhall Spa Country Show for information and the Section

Spires & Steeples Challenge

| | Comments (0)

October saw another successful Spires & Steeples Challenge Event with almost 400 runners and walkers taking part. The event attracted people from as far away as Edinburgh, Manchester and an entire running club coming from London!

A charity event in aid of Wheel Appeal, the Challenge follows the Spires & Steeples Arts and Heritage Trail from Lincoln to Sleaford, winding through many of the villages along the way. With the option of running or walking the entire trail of almost 26 miles or halfway to the village of Metheringham, there is something to suit most abilities.

Countryside Promotion Officer, Theresa Hobbs said "The comments from those taking part were excellent, saying how much they enjoyed our countryside and the local hospitality. A few also commented on the kindness of one resident near to Potterhanworth who had taken the time to set out a table with refreshments on.
It is things like this that can turn this into a really enjoyable event with a lovely friendly atmosphere. On behalf of everyone involved in the event I would like to say a big thank you to this person.

It would be terrific if we could get more people from the local communities involved next year, whether it is an encouraging cheer as the Challengers pass through the villages or even supplying the odd fairy cake or flapjack. The one constant request has been for more refreshments along the way and I am sure there are lots of fantastic bakers out there!"
