Scrooby Show 2010: First Committee MINUTES

8pm Thursday 6 May 2010, Pilgrim Fathers

Attendees

Phil Walton, Julie Davidson, Chris Spence, Tony Spence, James Arrowsmith, Ann Robbins, Graham Robbins

Funds from 2009

• £150.00 seed funding form Scrooby Gardening Club
• £550.00 grants from BDC and NCC
• Total of £940.00 raised on the day, after direct expenses
• £1,157.29 retained after all expenses

It was agreed last year that enough funds should be retained to cover the cost of hiring the marquee next year. With a margin for price increase, this would be £500.

Suggestions for the use of the remaining funds of £657.29 were:

• Two picnic tables for the children?s play area and croft.
• Ranskill School Gardening Club
• Display equipment for the Village Hall
• An annual tree planting event
• Attractions for the 2010 Show, e.g. fairground rides
• Outdoor chairs for the village hall/croft

£51.75 was spent on the Sorbus Commixta Embley tree planted on the Croft.

The 2010 Show

Character of the Show

The four aims of the show are:

1. To continue the high standards of competition and judging
2. To emphasise the local and rural character of the show
3. To provide opportunities for active participation on the day

Tidy up

Site Layout

A single large marquee will be erected on the Croft. The exhibit tables and stalls will be laid out in the marquee. A collapsible tent borrowed from Bassetlaw Play Forum will be erected over the stone paved area to the east of the Village Hall. Tea tables will be set in the Village Hall. The public may enter and leave the Village Hall and Croft from any direction.

Administration

Class and award cards were printed by Monks Printers, Doncaster, in 2009.

Classes will be clearly labelled with class number and name, i.e. ?Class X YYYYYYY?. Class labels will be weighted.

Entries will be taken and logged onto a spreadsheet on a laptop by Phil and Julie. Each entry form and therefore each number will relate to one person only (e.g. John Smith, not the Smith Family). This will be strictly enforced. Each person may make only one entry per class (e.g. John Smith may only enter one cucumber). Entrants will be given one entry tag and one sticker per entry.

The entry tag will be a folded piece of paper showing class number and name, and entrant number on the unfolded part, and the entrant name on the folded part, i.e. ?Class X YYYYYY Entrant X ? John Smith?. The entry tag will remain folded until immediately after judging, when the name of each entrant will be revealed. This will enable judging sheets to be completed with the entrant name, and the public to identify the entrant of each entry.

The sticker will show class and entrant number, i.e. ?Class X Entrant Y?. The sticker will be affixed to the exhibit.

Judges will be guided around the entries by members of the committee who will provide judging sheets, pens, clipboards, etc and take judging results to a team of people (?Sarah, Mariah and Joyce) who will fill out award cards as judging proceeds. This team will be provided with a separate tent to the marquee, with a power cable. The section helpers are listed below under Judges and Helpers.

The judging results will show class number and name, award, and entrant number and name, i.e. ?Class X YYYYYYY, 1st Entrant X1 John Smith, 2nd Entrant X2 Joyce Jones, 3rd Entrant X3 Joe Doe?. Phil will record these results on the spreadsheet and calculate the winners of the aggregate points trophies.

Award cards will be professionally printed to a good standard. For 2010, the cards should have more decoration than on the 2009 cards. No prize money will be offered. Award cards will show class number and name, award, entrant number and name, i.e. ?Class X YYYYYYY, 1st, Entrant X1 J Smith?. The cards will be printed with award only, while the class number and name and entrant number and name will be hand written onto the cards during the show.

Where an age criterion is intended, then the class must be restricted to a specific age group. We cannot judge ?Best under 7? etc within a class as it requires the age of each entrant to be know at the time of judging.

Sports and pets classes will be entered anonymously. The winners will be asked to mount a podium to enable the public to identify them. No record of entrants and award winners will be made. Rosettes/medallions will be given at judging.

Judges and Helpers

School Involvement

We will visit Mrs Atkinson of Ranskill School Gardening Club to establish how children can be encouraged to participate in and attend the 2010 show, and possibly to make a donation to their funds. One suggestion would be to hold a garden design/picture competition.

The judging results will show class number and name, award, and entrant number, i.e. 'Class X YYYYYYY, 1st Entrant X1, 2nd Entrant X2, 3rd Entrant X3'. Phil and Julie will resolve these numbers to entrant names.

Award cards will be professionally printed to a good standard. No prize money will be offered. Award cards will show class number and name, award, entrant number and name, i.e. 'Class X YYYYYYY, 1st, Entrant X1 J Smith'. Should we have blank cards which can be hand written or cars pre-printed with class number and name?

Where an age criterion is intended, then the class must be restricted to a specific age group. We cannot judge 'Best under 7' etc within a class as it requires the age of each entrant to be know at the time of judging.

Sports and pets classes will be entered anonymously and rosettes given at judging. No record of entrants and award winners will be made.
