A Few Tips for Exhibitors

1. Please make sure you read the schedule and count your exhibits, an extra potato or carrot will not be judged and marked N.T.S. (not to schedule)

2. Vegetables should generally be as large as possible, exceptions being potatoes and beetroot where judges like to see good clean medium sized exhibits, look for the requisite number of even sized exhibits – 4 good medium carrots will usually beat 3 big ones plus a little one.

3. Judges tend to favour cucumber or courgettes with the flower or its remains intact.

4. Paintings etc should be nicely framed and clean.

5. Cookery classes should be well cooked but not overdone, again make sure you enter the correct quantity. Check that the pastry of custards and flans is fully cooked.

6. Wine, Jam, etc in glass containers should be in clean clear glass. Corks if possible should be shoulder type for ease of removal.

7. Arts and Crafts exhibits should be clean and free of creases.

8. Please do not put your name on the front of the exhibits.

9. Flowers should be fresh new blooms, dropped petals immediately put the judge off.

10. Please do not be afraid to have a go, challenge your neighbour to have a go, a little friendly competition can be good fun. If you are beaten, resolve to win next year.

 

PS. Every effort will be made to look after your exhibits, but accidents do happen. So please do not enter any item of extreme monetary or sentimental value that could be possibly damaged.
