TOWN butcher Chris Potter is returning to Nynehead for his 17th annual ferret show.

On Sunday, July 20, co-owner of the popular Tim Potter, Son & Daughter establishment on Wellington’s Fore Street, Mr Potter will host his annual ferret show at Nynehead Memorial Hall.

He said: “After so many people asking, I am pleased to announce that my Ferret show will be going ahead for the 17th time.”

“I’ve shown ferrets since I was little with my dad. Unfortunately, lots of the shows I did have died out, so I started my own 17 years ago.

“Last year we had over 200 entries across 18 different categories.”

Each class promises prizes with rosettes and ferret food thanks to sponsor Gilbertson and Page.

A barbecue with Potter’s meats, and a bar will be available throughout the day.
