Enniscrone Show

ENNISCRONE & DISTRICT AGRICULTURAL & INDUSTRIAL SHOW

A donkey is stronger than a horse of the same size. Donkeys have an incredible memory – they can recognise areas and other donkeys they were with up to 25 years ago. Donkeys are not easily startled (unlike horses) and have a keen sense of curiosity.

Judging commences at 10am
1st €50, 2nd €30, 3rd €20 (unless otherwise stated) Vouchers to the same value may be given in some classes. ENTRY FEE: €12, five or more entries €10
