Not long until our Summer Show - 10th August in Rosemarkie!
Last year's Show again saw the Gordon Memorial Hall crammed with a magnificent display of flowers, produce, food, crafts and photographs. And outside, the sun shone as competitors emptied their Tubs of Tatties and visitors enjoyed their Cream Teas under the gazebos on the lawn.
This year’s Show will be held on Saturday 10th August, again at the Gordon Memorial Hall, Rosemarkie. We’re hoping for a repeat of last year (with the exception of the sudden downpour that soaked the Tub of Tatties judges as they completed their task!) You can download the Show Schedule, which lists all the classes in the Show and explains how it works, as a Word document here, or as a pdf here. If you have any questions please get in touch.
Entering the Photography classes - print or digital
Photographs can be entered as prints (not mounted, maximum size 178 x127mm (7”x5”), 20p per entry) – bring them along to the Hall between 6:30pm and 8:00pm on Friday 9th August or between 8:30am and 10:30am on Saturday 10th August.
Alternatively, you can send digital images to bihs1955@gmail.com by Tuesday 6th August, putting your name and the class number in the filename (e.g. joansmithclass116.jpg).
