The perfect display as town marks 200th show
To mark the 200th show this weekend, businesses in the town created special window displays with a show theme.
There were some truly immaginative displays, and the Garstang Show committee is offering a prize for the best window display.

Bombshell Betty manager Naomi Walker said: “Our window display is to showcase the different elements of the show.
“A lot of people think it’s just about cattle, but you can showcase flowers and handicraft.
“We made a dress and jacket out of potato sacks to showcase creativity and also to showcase local potatoes.

“We also told the history of the show in the window.
“And we’ve got a life-size cow for the cattle part of the show. “It’s all about celebrating 200 years and to let people know it’s a fantastic place to go to.”
The winner will be announced later this week.
