The Nice N Easy Grocery Shoppes Madison Bouckville Antique Week will continue with its 40th year. This year’s show week will be August 15-21, 2011. Madison Bouckville Promotion was formed in November 2010 when it was announced that the original promoter of the Madison Bouckville Antique Show, Jock Hengst, was retiring and had sold is show field to a local farmer. The future of the New York State’s largest outdoor antique festival was in jeopardy and in need of new leadership and a community wide effort. Over the 40 years ago the original show promoter and a handful of others started the show in a small airfield on Rt. 20 center in the towns of Madison and Bouckville. During these four decades the show grew from that small field to what today is the largest outdoor antique event in New York State. Today Madison Bouckville Promotions is proud and pleased to announce that this year’s show will continue in 2011 and for years to come. Over the last 7 months the organization held monthly meetings, worked with local governmental leaders and sought new sponsorship for the events continuation. We are excited to announce that Nice N Easy Grocery Shoppes have come on board as the official Title Sponsor. The association members are greatly appreciative that Nice N Easy President and CEO John MacDougall agreed to come on board.
