Industrial Competition
This year there are some extra special themes for several classes within the Industrial Competition – the Royal Jubilee and the 2012 Olympics! The popular annual Families Class challenges families to work together to create Jubilee Scarecrow exhibits. There will be a special Scarecrow paddock on the main field to house them. Let's hope they don't frighten the sheep!
