Suzanne Hamilton invites you to ‘A Day at the Races’.

ur traditional show is held in the idyllic setting of Great Comberton’s Brailles Orchard, overlooked by Bredon Hill and our ancient church. The centrepiece is the historic marquee with its fiercely competitive classes for wine, fruit, vegetables, art and crafts, cookery and children. This year we are celebrating our 71st event with the theme, ’A Day at the Races’ so look out for

the ladies in their race attire and race themed classes in the marquee. Classes are open to all so please get involved. You can also enjoy a fabulous selection of quality village and craft stalls and plenty of games and activities from our infamous egg throwing championship to plank plodding, Ed’s Punch and Judy and the Google treasure hunt. The novelty dog show starts at 2.30pm and classic cars are judged during the afternoon.

This year’s children's fancy dress is "my favourite book character" - it's free to enter and there will be prizes for all. A wide range of refreshments will be on offer including WI teas, a BBQ and Village Bar. The day ends with an auction of exhibits so you can take home some prize winning produce. If you have a classic car from any era then please bring it along and enter it for “the car our judge would most like to take home.”

Entrance Adults £2.50, Children Free 2pm - 5pm Saturday 26th August Free Parking Schedules & details at www.theflowershow.org.uk or call Suzanne Hamilton on 01386 710466 55
