Dear Show Supporter,
It is with great regret that the Aldermaston & Wasing Show committee have now decided to abandon the idea of a 2020 Produce Show due to the Coronavirus lockdown. We held out as long as possible to see if restrictions would lift but to no avail.
But in our hearts we couldn’t let a year pass without this Aldermaston tradition, so like many more this year we are going ‘Virtual’ and have planned a virtual Duck Derby and are planning some virtual Show Classes for people to enter. These we will announce in the next week or two. Our main channel of communication will be Facebook but do look out for information on local online newsletters and please do ask around as somebody will know what is going on.
Finally, as a consequence of the lockdown the Old Mill have asked if we would move the show from a Saturday to a Sunday in 2021. We are happy to do so to help them in this difficult economic climate. Therefore the Show as we all know it will be back on SUNDAY, 5TH September 2021.
Yours
Chris Boott - Chair
