Lots of Longford winners at 60th Arva Show

The Arva Agricultural Show Society celebrated their 60th Annual Show on Sunday and while the weather was quite mixed, it failed to dampen the enthusiasm and enjoyment of the big attendance.

The fireworks display that evening with viewing from the playground at Gartylough Lake was a great success.
