Despite the hot weather there was plenty of tea on hand for thirsty revellers at the Driffield Show.
The Yorkshire Country Women’s Association (YCA), who have been coming to the show for over 25-years, had its marquee filled with tables and chairs for those in need of refreshment.
Bric-a-brac and crafts made by association members were also on sale.
Stephanie Jacques, chairman of the Hornsea branch and treasurer for the East Riding Committee, said: “We like the Driffield Show because it is nice publicity for us. It is making people aware of what we do - which is all about friendship and learning.”
She said the tombola run at the show this year raised over £100 was raised for YCA’s charity
The association is this year celebrating its pearl anniversary, marking 30 years of activity.
The East Yorkshire Federation of Women’s Institutes were also running a refreshment station, with many grateful customers sheltering from the heat of the day with tea and cake.
There have been WI groups at the Driffield Show for well over 30-years, and this year the federation is celebrating its 30th anniversary.
Pam Witts, chairman of the WI Driffield Show Committee, said: “I do enjoy it but it is hard work setting up the marquee. This year we had help on Monday from the 2nd Driffield Scout leaders.
“The show is great because you see people you haven’t seen for ages and we are trying to promote the WI to younger members.”
