David Anderson   presided over the 114th Mid Argyll Agricultural Show on Saturday the 13th August 2011 at Kilmory,        
                                     Lochgilphead with all the usual competitions plus a few new ones. 

                                   Though the ground was very wet and muddy, because of torrential rain on days preceding the show, on Saturday, the sunshine drew a large crowd of spectators
                                   who enjoyed watching the judging of competitions and varied program of events.

                                   The system of using the School car park and shuttle buses  taking people from the square in Lochgilphead up into the show ground, via the school car park proved popular.
                                    Unfortunately the horse and pony section had to be cancelled due to the effect of the rain on the field.
