THROUGH your letters page, the management team who organised the Countess of Warwick's Country Show would like to send a big message of

thanks to the many people who helped make the show such a success.

Thank you to all the many volunteers who helped before, during and after the show. Thanks go also to the stall holders and event organisers who gave of their time and effort to add their own brand of enjoyment.

Amongst these are included the teams from the churches of Little Canfield, Dunmow and Takeley and from the Hatfield Forest Scout Fellowship.

Their participation is very much appreciated and adds greatly to the community spirit so much in evidence at the show.

Those taking part in the agricultural, horticultural, equestrian and art exhibitions are to be congratulated on the quality of their work.

The biggest thank you of all goes to all the visitors who took advantage of the sunshine to spend time during the holiday weekend in Little Easton.

As one exhibitor has written, no other events they have attended even come close to its atmosphere.

It is the one event they all look forward to in the year more than any other.

Please do come again next year and help to continue this great tradition of the rural countryside.
