Joint B.B.K.A. National Honey Show Blue Ribbon Award
The Blue Ribbon is designed as the premier award at honey Shows round the country, and has attached to it a voucher, which when completed by the Show Secretary, will entitle the winner to a free entry to an Open Class at the National Honey Show and free entry to the Show.
Will Secretaries please note that this award may only be issued at Shows attracting over 100 entries in all beekeeping classes. Applications accompanied by copies of the last Show Schedule and an indication of the number of entries received, should be addressed to Revd. H.F. Capener, Hon. General Secretary, National Honey Show, 1 Baldric Road, Folkestone, Kent. CT20 2NR or BBKA Sales, c/o National Beekeeping Centre, Stoneleigh, Warwicks. CV8 2LG

Novice Prize Winners Gift Admission Tickets
Offered to winners of Novice, Beginners, Junior, and School Classes at any Honey Show, the ticket carries with it a copy of the Schedule and Programme and admission to the Show including the Convention Lectures on the day selected by the recipient. The range of classes at a Honey Show eligible for the scheme is subject to the widest interpretation. At some shows the Novice Class is strictly for those who have never competed before, at others the classes are open to those who have never won a 1st prize before; they all qualify. School and Junior Classes have no limitations, so long as the Novices and Beginners Class is for Beekeeping products and is at a Honey Show or in the Beekeeping Section of another kind of Show. The ticket only requires filling in and signing by the Show Secretary to make it valid for the admission of the prize winner and friend to the National Honey Show. It is issued by the Revd. H.F. Capener, Hon. General Secretary, The National Honey Show, 1 Baldric Road, Folkestone, Kent. CT20 2NR

Overseas Exhibitors - Please Note
Following difficulties experienced in previous years, Overseas Exhibitors are reminded of EU rules. UK Customs are implementing an EU Council Directive 95/23/EC dated 29 April 1996. These restrictions relate to hive products, but have no impact on other classes. This is not a total exclusion as regards exhibits from overseas. Some exhibits were allowed into the country and were staged. To avoid further disappointment potential overseas exhibitors should check that any hive product exhibits will be able to pass into the UK without hindrance.
