From about 4pm on Saturday, it’s all systems go for participants, young and old.
“We try to host a couple of charity events each year,” association secretary Jill Pepperall said.
“So, the funds raised from this competition will go towards the Red Door Community Kitchen in Muswellbrook.
“The members like to do something for the local community.
“But, the committee is also watching the weather closely [due to the heat].
“At this stage, we’re not anticipating any issues.
“However, if the committee feels it will be too hot to run the event for the safety of the animals, it will be rescheduled to a later date.”
Cut-out entries will be taken at the showground on Friday night.
