The Orsett Show is one of the
oldest one-day Country Shows in England, having celebrated its 100th
Show in 2006. Set
in 30 acres of countryside, the annual Orsett Show is a
great day out with plenty for all the family to see and do.

Unfortunately, due to the
weather the attendance figures were well down in 2008. A good time
was had by all that attended the Show, in between the showers and high
winds. Had the weather been dry and sunny it would have been a great
family day out because of the high diversity of events for the
spectator, plus so many different stalls and displays to visit.
The low attendance and very
high expenditure in putting the show together has amounted to a
financial loss to the Orsett Show.
The Orsett Show is a registered
charity and is manned and planned by a very dedicated team of
volunteers. It is also supported and sponsored by a number of local
companies for which the Show Council is extremely grateful.
Every year the Orsett Show
Council nominates local charities to receive a share of the profit
generated by the Show. Whilst the nominated charities will each
receive a donation from the Shows reserves, the amount they will each
receive will be less than hoped due to the bad weather on the day of
the show. |
