Organising committee marketing officer Melissa Gillett said it was exciting to have confirmation the event will go ahead for another year.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere was no guarantee it was going to go ahead with the costs of everything going up but this year we had great support from the Golden Plains Shire,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cLast year was a terrific event and it would be really disappointing to see it not go ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n
Entries will commence at 8.30am with events running from 10am and the entry fee will be priced at $20.<\/p>\n
There will be a range of other entertainment on the day with a cutest puppy competition, egg and spoon race, billy can race and sack race.<\/p>\n
