The Oxford & Cambridge Goat Race…

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

At 4.30pm on Saturday 3rd April, as the horn blows to signal the start of the Oxford vs Cambridge Boat Race, two feisty goats (one named Oxford, one named Cambridge) will start their dash in the 2nd annual Oxford vs Cambridge Goat Race just a few miles away at Spitalfields City Farm in London.

Delamere Dairy is proud to support the event and will be raffling a hamper of delicious goats’ products and cheering on the best looking goat on the day!

The inaugural Goat Race in 2009 saw Cambridge, the pygmy goat, storm home to victory in front of a roaring crowd of over 400 people. This year The Goat Race is set for even more farmyard fun and should be an unmissable date in the diaries of fans of both goats and nonsense.

There are plenty of other things going on during the afternoon including an official Goat Race bookie and sweepstake, goatie knitting race, DJ and goat-themed markets stalls including Delamere Dairy and Billy Goat Stuff Chocolates.

Delamere Dairy will also be offering attendees vouchers to try the milk for free. Be sure to join The Oxford vs Cambridge Facebook Group for the latest news.

All proceeds from the day will go to Spitalfields City Farm. If you’re in London this weekend then why not bob along!
