International Back to Back Sheep to Shawl Challenge
June 5, 9am – close

Come cheer on our local team “Sheep Thrills” as they shear a sheep, spin the wool and knit a sweater all in one sitting. The Back to Back is a world wide race with teams all over the world racing for the best time. Our local team consists of Debra Oxby, Delia Burge, Amanda Nash, Brenna Swinamer, Dale Gruchy, Liz Miller and Deb Orridge Barnhill.

Raffle tickets are being sold in the shop on the finished sweater, a MacAusland Blanket and gift certificates from all over Wolfville. All proceeds going to Carey Me palliative care program at the Valley Regional Hospital.

Shearing demonstrations will be taking place throughout the day by master shearer Sarah Nettleton and local fleeces will be available for purchase. Be sure to stop in and bring the family as the kids love to see the sheep up close!
