Doveton show: ‘show’ your support

More hands are required on deck to help run Doveton’s annual show on September 23. 

The show, conceived as a low-cost alternative to the Royal Melbourne Show, will feature an animal nursery, sheep-shearing and chainsaw-carving demonstrations, rides, art and craft displays, showbags, train rides and historical engine displays. Volunteers are needed for tasks including setting up marquees, selling tickets, supervising rides, workshops and the animal nursery, and wearing the mascot costume.  Picture: Ted Kloszynski

Entry is by gold coin donation. Some rides and activities are free. To help, call 0478 154 828 or visit info@dovetonshow.org.au.
