For the Millennium year, the annual show was bought
forward from its usual timing of September to 19th August to enable it
to form part of the Hendred Village Millennium Celebration. With a further
break with tradition, the show was held in a splendid marquee set up on
the Sports Ground in Mill Lane.
The committee (Adrian Sessions, Mike Harris, Mick Childs
and Rachel Sutton) worked closely with the Sports Club committee to organise
the event whilst ensuring that the normal show arrangements stayed intact.
There were over were over 100 classes and almost 40 trophies to be won
which were presented by Dave Mcdowell and Edward Eyston.
