Local Ag Show ladies at Dubbo for Info Day and Gala Dinner By GINNI BROWN A DELEGATION from the Narromine Committee of the AgShows NSW Young Women competition and Narromine Show Society, headed to Dubbo recently to attend the “Celebrating Ag Shows NSW information day and Gala Dinner”. Attendees spent the day and evening with attendees from other show societies from across NSW, to discuss issues that ranged from volunteer retention to cyber-security and committee governance. “Show committees across the State have had a challenging few years, with several years of severe drought running into the challenges of the pandemic and widespread cancellations” Sara McGilchrist from Narromine Agricultural Show Society said. “However, we have seen a resurgence in interest and attendance both at our local show, and at our amazing Show Ball, which this year was sold out in two weeks,” she added. Sarah Weir, Keiley Noble, Maddy Preston, and Sara, all attended and felt the day was extremely valuable, both in terms of information and connections with other show societies. The Narromine Show is being held across two days in September, and is sure to be bigger and better than ever. Narromine is also hosting the 2024 Zone Final for the AgShows NSW Young Woman Competition.
