Bushmills War Exhibition

This year the opening ceremony will be performed by Keith Beattie of Ballymoney Museum.

Also speaking will be Charlie Wormington otherwise known as “The Roamer” in the News Letter. Bill Canning of Antrim will also speak.

There will be many new exhibits and a number of local items have been presented for annual exhibition.

John Pattison is bringing his usual display of items and the organisers are hoping to have a space for a nursing display by Isobel Lapsley.

There will be the usual display of medals, uniforms, artifacts brought from the Battlefields, grenades, scrolls, photographs, rolls of honour etc.

The ladies of Bushmills Presbyterian Church will be in chare of the teas and everyone can be assured of a very high standard of service from them.

Admission is, as usual, free with a donation made to the Presbyterian Church which is entirely at the discretion of the visitor.

Organisers have designed the sale as another great family day out with ‘something for all age groups’ and everyone will be warmly welcomed. Past sales have proved extremely popular drawing large crowds from far and near including the stallholders themselves.

For all those attending there will be plenty of catering options on offer. ‘Bethany Kitchen’ will be serving hot dogs, burgers and chips while inside the halls tea, coffee, soup, stew, sandwiches and cakes will be available.

This is a golden opportunity to sell your unwanted or new goods and to find a bargain. Why not take time out to pop along and browse. You might even see something that takes your fancy.
