Oak Tree Animals’ Charity is hosting its annual summer fair next month – with plenty of treats on offer for dogs and families.

The fair, on Saturday July 15, will run from 10am to 3pm at Oak Tree Farm, Wetheral Shields, Carlisle.

Elisabeth Fell, summer fair organiser, said: “This year there will be lots of summer games for all the family, including Master Dog – an IQ game for dogs and their owners. There will also be an appearance from Ted the Chelsea Pensioner who will be judging the cake decorating and rock decorating competitions at the fair.”

Calling all bakers and cake makers!

There will be a cake decorating competition at the summer fair!

How to enter

  • Entry is £3 per cake.
  • Bring your fabulous cake along to our site on Saturday July 15. There will be a tent in the main paddock to bring your cakes to, drop them off no later than 12.30pm.
  • Consider the weather when decorating your cake as it cannot be guarantede they will be kept cool inside the tent.
  • Judging will take place between 12.30pm and 1pm, by wonderful Chelsea Pensioner Ted. The judging will be based solely on decoration (no tasting) and prizes will be awarded for first, second and third – first place will win a hamper of goodies!
  • Once the winner has been announced entrants are able to take their cakes home.
  • Please note that food or drink not purchased on site cannot be consumed on the premises.

Mrs Fell said: “Ice cream and dog ice creams, food and refreshments will be served on the day from The Tearoom and Education Room.

“This July there is a 10 per cent discount on all takeaway food orders from The Tearoom, and you’ll get a free Picnic For Pets Pack too.

“There will also be a cake stall in the central paddock, with a dedicated picnic area to sit on the grass and enjoy your tearoom takeaway. We ask that the public use the bins provided or take their rubbish home with them.

“In Orchard Yard, you will find all kinds of fantastic second-hand bargains, including affordable pet equipment (for dogs, cats and horses), homeware, clothes, toys, gifts and other goodies too.

“Blackburn Woods opposite the Oak Tree site is going to be the site of a Teddy Bear Hunt! Buy a trail sheet from reception for £3 and search the woods for teddy bears hiding in the trees. Once completed, return your sheet to reception, and win a teddy bear of your own!

“There will be trained members of staff and partnered vets, Paragon and Coomara, available on the day to help with any pet-related questions. There will also be children’s crafts, equine demonstrations, a coconut shy, tin can alley, maypole, tombolas, and so much more!

“We hope to see you all there!”
