About the Brick & Rolling Pin Competition:
In 1960 the brick-making towns of Stroud in the UK and the USA, held the first bricking-throwing contest, with Australia and Canada joining the tradition in 1961. In 1962, Australia suggested including a women’s rolling pin contest.
And recently, the fun-filled addition of children hurling a rubber chook embodies the events sense of family spirit and lightheartedness, which keeps attracting participants and spectators year after year.
