This Wednesday 21st and Thursday 22nd August it is the North Show and the GSPCA are there with a stall and have been attending since 2012.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "This summer is extraordinarily busy for us at the GSPCA, especially with all the events and our BIG BUILD Appeal."
"The North Show is always a wonderful event and at the GSPCA we are so grateful to them to be allowed to join them once again."
“Our van is at Saumarez Park and we will be ready to go in the morning and we are so grateful as we have staff from Northern Trust helping us.”
"Pop along and see our GSPCA stall at the North Show."
The North Show is one of the main events in Guernsey's summer calendar, and takes place in the wonderful rural setting of Saumarez Park.
The Guernsey North Show and Guernsey Battle of Flowers, is held in August each year and this year it takes place this Wednesday and Thursday.
The Guernsey North Show and Battle of Flowers is run by the Northern Agricultural and Horticultural Society and the GSPCA are very grateful to them for allowing us to come along.
Each year the Show attracts thousands of visitors to: The displays of exhibitors' entries, ranging from Guernsey livestock through fur and feather, fruit, vegetables, flowers, flower arrangements, cookery, photography, art and craft.
The GSPCA have taken a stall along and we will have lots on sale and games to play.
The programme of arena events, showcasing local and off-island talent, and including in the afternoon of day two, the Guernsey Battle of Flowers, which culminates in the evening illuminated cavalcade, the whole rounded off with a firework display.
The Show is also supported throughout the two days by lots of entertainment, refreshment and other stalls and displays.
