We Provide: Pigs, starting gate, race track, announcer,
PA, housing for the pigs, concessions for the fans to purchase prize
ribbons and photos. We will provide up to THREE shows a day, each show
lasting 30 minutes.
What is in our Show: With music and two feather friends during
the pre-show that leads the audience into our Hillbilly Show. The swinemaster
is dressed in colourful coveralls and does the introductions of all
the animal racers to the audience while the caretaker places the "silks"
on the racers and gets them ready to race. We pick out cheerleaders
from the audience to "root" on the racers to victory. The
race begins with the "Call to the Post" and the sound of a
bell and they're off. All participants and cheerleaders get a ribbon
saying, "I went Hog Wild at the Pig Races". We then follow
up with a duck race, Baby Pot Bellied Pigs, mixed animal and pig race,
our own Backyard Olympics for volunteers from the audience and one last
pig race.
You Provide
You Provide: A sponsor or sponsors if you so desire.
The sponsor should provide signage for the trailer, tracks and prizes,
if they want to give away something. You will also need to provide water,
electric, a dumpster or barrel close to dispose of waste property and
15 bags of compressed wood shavings.
Location: 50 by 100 feet is optimal, but we can fit into 40 by
85 feet. If you provide bleachers or a tent we would be glad to work
with that, but please tell us in advance. Of course you would then need
more room for the tent or bleachers. We also can work inside buildings,
if we have prior knowledge of the set up.
