AUTUMN SHOW RESULTS 2024            

After a chilly start, a beautiful sunny day was the backdrop for the Autumn Show in Sarratt Village Hall on the 14th September.  The preceding week was full of bad weather: rain, strong winds, hail and cold nights.  But the hardy gardeners of Sarratt still had some things left to exhibit as well as tales of how much better it could have been!  

Sandra Turner was the winner of the trophy for roses.  But Simon Hammett dominated the other gardening categories by winning three cups:  the dahlia trophy, the ‘other flowers’ cup and the fruit and vegetable cup.  Well done Simon.! 

Julie Mansi was a clear winner in the cookery section and also took the Staughton Cup for the best jam.  The Floral Art was a close contest with Sue Clark, Sarah Altman and Janice Alder sharing the honours.  The Arts and Crafts section allowed the entrants to show off their creative skills with some amazing creations.  Leigh Martins and Ted North were joint winners in a close contest.

There were some lovely children’s entries with Sam and Jack Kiely plus Levente Brown winning the trophy with the Tyler family winning the plate for the most points for a single family.

The overall show winner was Simon Hammett with Steven Booth winning a cup for the most points across the Spring And Autumn Shows.

The prizes were presented by Lady Joanna Staughton after the end of a delightful afternoon where the village had met to see the exhibits and have a chat with their friends over a cup of tea or coffee.
