Events and Activities for the year 2014
Report on the
2014 Somerset
and Dorset Philatelic Federation Competition (Poole)
The Poole and District Philatelic and Postcard Club were delighted to have hosted this year's Competition. Particularly impressive was the efficiency of the organising and co-ordination of the event, which entailed amongst other things the delivery and erection of so many frames. Carol did an exceptional job all round. It was a pleasure to have the Competition Secretary arrive in plenty of time with all his equipment, and the entries!! so that they could be mounted and arranged, and then the many certificates and diplomas printed and distributed with the silverware.
The competence of the Judges was also most appreciated. It was noted that most of the Federation Officers and Judges had travelled from as far as Minehead, Burnham and Yeovil, great dedication, and a pleasure to see everyone having a good time. The Poole Club's Annual Fair took place in the main hall, and the Dealers appreciated the extra visitors that the Competition attracted.
It is pleasing to note that many of the Awards, and the overall Winner Trophy went to Poole Club members, who submitted seven of the fifty entries. A table of the results are beneath the pictures below.
An enormous "Thank You" and "Well Done" to all involved.
Roll on Taunton in 2015!!!
