The show, which will be held at Bodfach Park, Llanfyllin on Saturday, August 10, has Doug Williams, of Bryn Vyrnwy Holiday Park, Llansantffraid, as president and Peter Lewis, of Green Hall, Llanfyllin, as chairman.

Doug has been attending the show for around 60 years and is honoured to be this year’s president. “I have missed very few shows over since my schooldays,” he said.

“It’s a very good quality show and one of the things that has impressed me most over the years is how efficient and hardworking the committee is. Llanfyllin also has a very good young farmers’ club and their enthusiasm has not dwindled over the years.”

Originally a dairy farmer, Doug diversified around 40 years ago to create a quality park with 100 holiday homes, whilst also keeping a small suckler herd of Hereford cattle.
