President’s Message

It is an honour to be the president of the Rhydycroesau Village Show and I was delighted to be invited, as I still feel myself to be an “incomer” even after 25 years.

Having been regular visitors to Rhydycroesau and Cefn Canol since the early nineteen sixties John and I were delighted to have the opportunity to make our home here on our retirement in the mid-nineties. In our time we have lived in Walsall, London, Middlesex and Suffolk, and this is definitely the best place to be.

We were fortunate to move into such a caring and close-knit community, one where people work together and look out for each other in times of need.

It is unusual these days to find so many people prepared to put in all the effort and hard work required to produce so many successful events such as the Village Show, the Pantomime and the Autumn Fair to name but a few. The hall is also very active throughout the year with various groups meeting on a weekly basis.

I would like to say thank you to the industrious team who put so much effort into putting on the Show and wish the very best of luck to all the exhibitors and riding competitors who help to make the Show a success.

May the weather be kind to us.
