Country Market at Achill Sheep Show 2009















































































Achill Country Market were at the Achill 2009 Sheep Show at Patten's Lounge Bar, Derreens, Achill island, on Sunday, 11th October. There was a huge turnout for the show, the largest yet, and this year Achill Country Market were able to use a marquee adjoining the pub.
Thank you to all our customers who attended.
On the day the sun came out and a great time was had by all. There was plenty of goods on offer by members, as well as traditional wool spinning and basket weaving demonstrations.
In addition, the Vegetable contest entries were on display in the marquee and the interior was festooned with childrens colourful and varied entries in a Show Poster competition. There was a continuous throng of visitors to the marquee and business was brisk.
Needless to say everyone had a fabulous time and agreed it was an event not to be missed, especially with Achill Country Market attending. Of course, we shall be attending again next year.
