    There will be giggletastic fun for all, whether you choose to take part in the mud encrusted games or whether you would just like to watch the fun from the river bank whilst enjoying a slice of homemade cake and a cuppa. Not only is this a fun event, but very importantly the Lowland Games is supported by local residents and businesses and raises money for charities and many local causes. People flock to the Lowland Games for all the fun and frolics to be had in one fabulous day. Look out for this year’s highlights, the River Raft Race, the infamous Mud Wrestling, Bee Keeping information, River It’s a Knock Out, Children’s Games, Family Dog Shows, Tug of War, Ferret Racing, teas and homemade refreshment and the best beer tent in the area, serving locally brewed ales from "Yeovil Ales" and Somerset brewed Burrow Hill Cider from local apples.

    THE KNARESBOROUGH BED RACE IS A BRLLIANT DAY OUT FOR EVERYONE, LITTLIES TO OLDIES.

  21. Lee Byers said on Mar 04 2011, 10:03 AM:

    The Knaresborough bed race is well worth a visit. The day begins with fancy dress parades, the race itself with river crossing!, live music and funfair, and a fireworks display to finish. Its a good day out for all the family and there's plenty of cafes, pubs, restaurants and entertainment from crazy golf, to sightseeing, river boats and a paddling pool for toddler's.
