Annual Exhibition March 11th & 12th 2017
We had another enjoyable annual exhibition again this year although unfortunately there were a couple of absences. As always, huge thanks go to all those who’ve supported the event, especially:
- The Exhibition organisers for all their hard work in making the show run smoothly
- The Nailsea School Team for their helpfulness and support
- The Catering team
- All our Exhibitors and Traders for helping to make a great show
- All the club members who turned out to man the doors, shift tables & chairs and help out where needed
- All you members of the public who paid to come to the show – our very special thanks to you!
