I would like to pay tribute to the founder members for their inspiration and enterprise in launching the show back in the nineteen seventies. I would like to thank all the past and present members of the Show Committee for all their hard work, commitment and dedication along the way. Not forgetting all our old friends who are very sadly no longer with us. The contribution of all our other staunch supporters from near and far; who have worked tirelessly and contributed in so many different way over the last forty years in order to keep the show going, especially during the more challenging times, is also very much appreciated. That includes all our volunteer helpers for their invaluable labour, the stall holders, entertainers, exhibitors, judges, stewards and the charitable organisations who work, in conjunction with the committee, to stage the show. Staging the show also involves a major financial outlay that would be totally impossible without the generous support of all our many sponsors, for which we are extremely grateful. Caerwys is a traditional Agricultural Show, which provides an interesting day out for everybody from all walks of life, with something for all age groups, from children to senior citizens. A true community event, where you will meet people from all parts of Flintshire and the surrounding Counties and experience the very best of what the Clwydian Hills have to offer 2020 marks the beginning of an exciting new era for Caerwys Show, as we return to Ty-Ucha Fields on the outskirts of Caerwys by kind permission of Mr & Mrs Elfed Thomas and Family. This new venue will enable the show to build on the success of recent years and hopefully continue to develop and prosper, as the next generation take the helm. The ongoing support of the general public is very much appreciated, so with Caerwys Show firmly Back in Town, our Committee look forward to welcoming you all to the Fortieth Annual Show on Saturday 13th June 2020.
