Thanks to Ryan McParland and his TAG team members I am getting an inside seat of behind the scenes at our local country shows
This week it was Robertson Show where I was fascinated by the ring announcers and the variety of ways that locals could test their fitness
It was a very hot day but this didn’t seem to dampen the community spirit nor the punters with the Famous Robertson Show’s Australian Championship Potato Race the highlight
Two women and 29 men lined up to tackle the Famous Robertson Show’s Australian Championship Potato Race under the beating sun. Matty Hammond from Robertson ran a strong race snatching first place followed by Max Mauger from Robertson in second place and Nigel Scannell from Bowral in third. Source
Then there was the harness races where people replaced horses in front of the sulky
The exhibits in the pavilion where stunning
and once again the Rural Ambassador program was a huge success with Angela Hughes declared the winner. Photo source
Congratulations Ryan you are creating a movement of young people who are role models for youth volunteering
