The Northern Gallery
Coronation Spring Show: In addition to the usual Showing, Driving and Children’s classes, there was a Scavenger Hunt and a Fancy Dress class. Possibly the most memorable event of the day however, was the Coronation Pageant that saw Junior members of the Society dressed in fine royal regalia, made by Northern Region stalwart Olwen Brown. How amazing they looked! See photos in the gallery (click on this).
