Sark’s biggest charity event was blessed by sunshine this weekend for the annual Sheep Racing festival. Hundreds of visitors flocked (excuse the pun!) to watch the woolly jumpers and enjoy the food, games and other attractions. Florence Burleston was crowned the new Miss Sark Princess and another Florence, this time from Jersey, was crowned as Miss Sark Visitor Princess. The fun began on Friday night with live music from City Limits who also closed the event on Saturday night. All of the money raised goes to the Professor Saint Fund that helps cover the cost of prescription medicines on Sark.
