West Suffolk Country Fair Rougham Airfield.

[jamespeterbrett]

Just had a invite from Oakleigh Fairs who are the new organizers of this event (formally known as Wings Wheels and Steam) that was held at Rougham Air Field (and ran by the Late Sir John Agnew).

The seam to be commercial event organizers, and are responsible for lots of different shows, but I know several people miss the old Rougham Air Field events.

Dear Steam Enthusiast,

OAKLEIGH FAIRS’ 2013 EVENTS

We are pleased to bring out our 2013 programme and feel that it offers a wonderful range of geography, splendour and pullability.

You will see that this year we are not running a standalone steam rally but we are running a variety of events including the West Suffolk Game and Country Show at Rougham Airfield on the same weekend as the old Wings, Wheels and Steam Show which has a good history of attendance by steam engines. The engines are given a pretty free rein to have much fun all in a totally informal way – weather dependent.

At each show we will provide water and an area for camping.

Expenses will be as follows:

£125 per day per full size engine
£50 per day for scale engines

We hope you find this acceptable and will of course pay participants in cash at the event. Engines will be able to arrive the day before the show and may stay until the day after. If you would like to take part please complete the attached form and send it back to us.

Please return to:
Oakleigh Fairs
Thrift Farm House, Horkesley Hill, Nayland
Colchester, Essex CO6 4JP

With kind regards,
Charlie Owen – Show Organiser


PS – PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD – MORE ENGINES WELCOME

Lets hope it will be a good show
