The John Gasson Jig Competion was amazing, back to it pre-pandemic best. The Solo and Double competitions were won by members of Ten Hill Morris from Massachusets. There was only half a point between 1st and 2nd in the Solos and 1 point between 1st and 2nd in the Doubles. This was the first time we had a penguin in the competition – Jess Searle (as the penguin) and Chris Toyne (musician) won Audience Appeal – very entertaining. There were 11 solo entries and 11 doubles.
The judges were John Braithwaite, Cat Radford, Fee Lock, Jameson Wooders
The sponsors were Janet Dowling, Fee and Dave Locke, Chris and Tracey Rose, Outside Capering Crew and his Old School Friends, Kerry Fletcher, Dixie Lee, Seven Champions.
