Saturday 7th September 2013 11am - 5pm Westbury-on-Trym Village Hall

It gives me great pleasure to announce the 34th Westbury on Trym Village Show's theme will be Urban Wildlife with our very special guest of honour Mike Dilger - The One Shows wildlife expert.

Our dedicated committee of volunteers work tirelessly throughout the year to ensure we can fulfil our objective of celebrating village life in the heart of the city, always with the aim of approaching it in the most inclusive and entertaining way!

This year there are two key changes: following on from the survey of the WoT community, we have changed our name from WoT Flower Show to WoT Village Show. This is to better reflect the wide and interesting range of categories to enter and activities to take part in on the day.

The second change is there are more classes and activities for younger children and families.  There are 91 competition classes in total, which, as well as all your old favourites, now include best 30 second video, best photo taken on a mobile phone as well as creative activities in woodwork, metal work and enameling.  And to support the efforts of the local primary school gardening clubs we now have the Best Junior School Gardening trophy and prize.

This year we will have 14 events/activities to take part in on the day, all based on our Urban Wildlife theme.  Our live owl show will cause a hoot, and our honeybees are sure to make a buzz.  Learn to pounce like a panther with Animal Antics and the Avon Wildlife Trust, SusWot and WotSoc will be sharing their great local work with us, where you can peer at Wildlife through the Microscope encouraging you to learn about lichens and the like.  Most exciting we will be setting up a moth trap on the Friday night and then studying the types of moths we've captured in WoT on Saturday.  All moths will be released the following night.

Entertainment from the ever popular Mosaic Singers and Westerleigh Brass Band, both of whom need no introduction.

There will be the usual gastronomic delights to feast on during the day, including Ruth's scrumptious homemade fayre and WoT's very own BBQ masterchefs - Richard and Mark!

Loads of fun stuff, heaps of educational activities and yummy food to keep you going.  What's not to like?

I look forward to seeing you all on Saturday 7th September
