Thanks to everyone who left suggestions and ideas in the box at the show;
please e-mail the web site if you have other thoughts or have further comments.
| All teenager entries should be judged against
1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes. |
Comment - This would act as encouragement to
entrants - as only a highly commended award was given this year it
could be seen as a disincentive to others.
|
| Consider using NAFA rules for flower arrangements. |
Comment - This would make judging easier and
fairer but they are harsh for true amateurs; it may be worth having
some classes at this level and other classes still using show current
show rules.
|
| Too hot in marquee - can we have
some ventilation or high level fans? |
Comment - Will see what other options there
are for next year.
|
| Distribute schedules in Gotham. |
Comment - Gotham is listed on schedule and
is within the 5 mile radius; ensure next year that schedules are
distributed there.
We will also put Clipston and Normanton on the schedule.
|
| Every single year it seems that the
same people win 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the flowers etc. I’ve been a florist
for 24 years and most of the displays were better than the ones that
won. It’s disgusting that this is allowed. |
Comment - Judges are changed each year, judging
is to NAFA rules in general and entrants are not identified so judging
is impartial. If the same people do win this is a reflection of their
competence but in fact there have been changes in the winners names
year on year. There is also a novices class for anyone who has not
won a prize before so this does mean there are at least 3 new names
on the winners list every year.
