The Montgomeryshire Agricultural Association held a very successful 4X4 Event on May 31 to launch its 2019 Schedule of Competitions.

The event started with coffee at The Station Grill, Llansantffraid, before travelling in the region of 60 miles through Glyn Ceiriog, Llanarmon DC, Llanrhaeadr Ym Mochnant and Llangedwyn, before returning to the Station Grill for a most enjoyable evening meal.

Alongside launching the 2019 Schedule of Competitions the association also promoted a book of poems entitled 'A Million Shades of Green' written by Frances Cartwright. This book contains poems written by Frances recording the association's 4X4 Events between 2014 and 2018.

The association would like to thank Wynnstay for sponsoring the association; Roy Wilde for organising a most enjoyable route; Brian Tomley, The Stable, Parc Uchaf for providing a viewing point and The Station Grill for the refreshments provided.

Anyone wishing to obtain a schedule can contact the association chairman Geof Langford on 01938 552968 or Anne Breese secretary on 01686 688917.

The association welcomes new entrants for the 2019 competitions.
