The 90th
RED HILL SHOW
The speed and agility of the fly dogs will astound! The Fly Dogs demonstration is a new edition to the show this year and the team at Four Paws Sports (4PS) will be showing us what their agile, clever dogs can do. It’s fun for spectators, dogs and handlers. Make sure you come and see Rodney and his Fly Dogs – run, jump, fetch and more. “We want more people and more dogs having fun, playing together”, commented Rodney. “Helping the handlers learn to better understand their four-legged companions and watching the dogs gain confidence is very rewarding. Crash Bandicoot (pictured right) is a 2yo Koolie from Australian Koolie Rescue. Quest, our other dog and Crash both love their dog sports and she fits in well with the 4PS philosophy of facilitating dogs to reach their potential”. Crash works for KONG and trains for Flyball, Canine Disc (UpDog), Dog Bar High Jump, Tricks and is loving life on the Mornington Peninsula.
A celebration of cider and the 90th for the CWA FOLLOWING the success of the inaugural cider show hosted by Max Allen last year, we are planning more demonstrations by our local cider makers and a public tasting of the award-winning ciders in show. We are thrilled to have local published foodie Richard Cornish back with us to MC the stage. Well known in the food scene as an independent writer and commentator on food issues and an affable and humorous host and presenter. The Country Women’s Association is also celebrating its 90th and continues to attract women from diverse backgrounds, ready to do their bit to make a big difference. The newest branch established last year up at Red Hill re-enforces this great work the CWA do. Mornington Peninsula Group President, Marnie Turner, said she was blown away by the response to the callout for women to stand up and make a difference in their local community. “Red Hill is rich with CWA history and it’s great to see these ladies coming together to ensure the legacy of the women who came before them, lives on.” The CWA will take centre stage at the Red Hill Show when the Fruit Cake judging commences at 10am or chat them at their show marquee.
