ORGANISERS are gearing up for the first ever Scarborough Country Show.
The event, sponsored by the Evening News, will take place on Sunday September 12 in the grounds of Scarborough College in Filey Road.
It will feature a massive range of attractions including: a dog show; rabbits and cavies; flowers, fruit and vegetables; arts and crafts; birds of prey; helicopter rides; drive a JCB; Army assault course; bouncy castles; vintage carousel; classic cars; target archery; reverse a trailer competition and more.

There will also be a children's writing competition judged by Scarborough authors GP Taylor and Ginny Forrest. The closing date is August 16.

Show organiser Tina Lewis said: "There is so much taking place at the show. There's lots to do and see that will keep all ages entertained."
"The writing competition is a great opportunity for budding writers to get their work judged by leading authors."

The Yorkshire Rat Club will also be holding a Pet Fancy Rat Show on the day.

Publicity officer Kate Rattray said: "We invite anyone who owns rats to come along, enter their rats in the show, and enjoy a fun day out.

"We also invite people to come along and learn more about these wonderful, friendly and intelligent creatures, and perhaps even hold or stroke one."

To download an entry form for the writing competition, go to www.scarboroughcollege.co.uk or call Tina Lewis on (01723) 512604 or email tina@yorkshire.net
