A DIGGER enthusiast has been selected to officially open the new JCB Young Drivers Zone
at HattonFarmVillage, near Warwick.
Four-year-old Joshua Mason has had a passion for diggers, trucks and
construction vehicles ever since uttering his first word – ‘tractor’. Now his
enthusiasm has won him the enviable position of being the first to climb aboard
mini-JCB diggers and tractors at the unveiling of the new attraction on
Saturday May 23 – the start of the Wonderful Whitsun holiday event.
The JCB Young Drivers Zone will provide youngsters with a child-sized
track with ramps, tunnels, traffic lights and even a fuelling station.
Mum, Sophie Mason from Leamington, said: “Josh’s passion is verging on
obsession! We have tried to introduce other interests but he just loves
everything to do with diggers and we can never walk past a construction site
without checking them out. He knows every manufacturer, make, model, and colour
and is especially interested in how they work. He used to spend hours on the
tractor trek at Hatton but this new attraction is even more up his street.”
The Wonderful Whitsun programme will also include demonstrations of sheep
shearing by one of the top UK sheep shearers Clifford Mitchell, and bouncing
agile pooches will be showing off their skills in dog agility shows. Goats will
also be taking over from Hatton’s famous racing sheep for a special spring
appearance on the racing track.

Village is at Hatton Country World, located just off the A4177 between Warwick
