After three years of cancellations, Lancefield residents are preparing for the return of the Lancefield Show on Sunday, October 15.
The long awaited return will include the crowd favourite dog high jump, along with the new editions of a table setting competition and an op shop repurpose competition.
Committee member Judy Stammers said everything is falling into place for the show, and she will be in the homes crafts section of the pavilion on the day.
“We are hoping for a good day and a huge crowd… We usually think there’s around 3500 to 5000 people in attendance,” she said.
“In the home craft section we’ve introduced… an op shop challenge where people need to find something from the op shop, repurpose it and present it for judging.
“The other is a table setting competition which involves a one place setting to present with an appropriate menu for the theme [the entrant] chooses.”
There will be demonstrations and talks from local farms and organisations, a tractor pull, poultry, sheep, working dog trials, woodchop, horse events and more. Food trucks, live music, rides and show bags will also be available, and this year’s show will see the return of a cake decorating demonstration from about 10.30am to 2.30pm.
