Torbay Steam Fair 2012 August 3rd, 4th and 5th.
On behalf of Sandie, Neil and Michelle, we would like to thank all those that were able to attend Pete's Funeral at the Torquay Crematorium, and for all the kind messages and condolences.
It was a magnificent show of support for a Family that has been so instrumental in the success of our show over recent years. Our thoughts and best wishes will be with them, especially over the coming weeks. We will also remember that we have lost such an important and valuable member who had succeeded in making our Model and Craft marquee into one of the largest and best supported in the country.
God bless you Pete, we will always remember you.
The Members of the Torbay Steam Rally Association wish all the Exhibitors, Traders, Helpers and visitors who help to make the Show a success, A very Merry Christmas and a Happy and fantastic new Rally year. We look forward to seeing you all again on August 3rd, 4th & 5th.
We are pleased to announce that Willem Kelders and family from Holland, will be bringing the largest travelling Concert organ in the world the 118 key "Victory" and the "Locomotion" to the 2012 Steam Fair. This is a massive coup for Torbay as the Organs travel throughout Europe and normally attend the largest venues in this country. More details will follow. For those who want a sneak preview they are appearing at the Gloucester Christmas Festival from the 8th to 11th December.
