THE 2018 VILLAGE SHOW Saturday 15th September. Save the date for the 49th P&TG Village Show! The Penn & Tylers Green Village Show has been staged for more than 40 years. General classes are open to everyone. In addition there are classes for under 14’s and “men only” cookery. There are trophies for a “young cook”, “young designer” and “young photographer” under the age of 18. With so many classes there will be something to take your fancy. Please do have a go and enter something! Here are some of the highlights of this year’s schedule... Flowers, fruit and vegetables: With the sun coming out over the Bank Holiday weekend, did you sowing your marrow and runner bean seeds for children’s classes? As well tend to your existing plants that will provide that flower for the Show? We know there are a few of you out there that nurture your roses, dahlias and chrysanthemums I am sure they are getting plenty of attention too. We are looking forward to a few more novices entering this year. Miscellaneous: Since we mentioned in the last VV about branching out we have had a few people intrigued at the chance to see eggs displayed from their hens on the day and more fun is to see what happy pets (caged) will be entered too. Domestic: We are sure people have been inspecting their jars of jam and marmalade to see which to save and enter to the Village Show and avoid it being eaten between now and then. Baking bread rolls is one of the entries which provides you all with the chance to experiment with different flours as well as working out the technique to ensure they all come out a uniform size and shape, happy baking to all of you. We wonder how many lemon meringue pies will be made and tasted www.pennandtylersgreen.org.uk Village Voice August/September 2018 over the next months, let us know how many you have made when you bring your entry in on the day. Craft: Over the years, we have always had one entry to be made from different materials, such as wood, ceramic, metal or other items, why not use recycled materials and show what can be done with everyday items we discard in our waste daily. Embroidery and needlework has proved popular to a number of people in the area and we look forward to their designs and entries at the Village Show. We feel there are lots of ideas out there to get you started and can’t wait to see the results. You still have time to start designing and creating and its open for all from youngsters and grown-ups alike. Art and photography: The digitally enhanced photographs have always drawn comments from the judges, entrants as well as the visitors on the day, ranging from shock at how a photo can be distorted so much to wonder at how a photo can be adapted and changed to become a work or art in its own right. This year we have tried to give much greater opportunities for entrants making the subjects much broader and naturally, looking forward to see what arrives on the day. Junior photographers can have a go at “all creatures great and small” and “the sky’s the limit”. Junior: There are a whole host of junior classes. Don’t forget - if you really can’t think of what to do in your own age group, enter an older age group or the open classes which are open to everyone. How are your sunflowers growing or are you just about to sow the seeds? What with the news about a new caterpillar that has arrived in the UK, it opens up more ideas for the under 3’s, 5’s and 7’s to be more creative with their entries. Our blind judge always loves attending the Show and spends time experiencing most of the entries and is looking forward to tasting the junior’s popcorn experiments along with mugs of fragrant herbs. Go to: www.pennandtylergreen.org.uk for a full list of classes / entry form. See you there, with your entries, there’s a class for everyone. David Deadman 29
