LOGO COMPETITION
At the moment we are running a logo competition. It is open to all ages. We are looking for a unique design in the shape of an oval or shield. It needs to reflect our Show, agriculture and Gulgong. First prize will be a family pass to our 2020 Show & a framed copy of the logo. We encourage our local & surrounding schools along with our community groups to get involved! Entries are preferred to be submitted electronically to our email address. Deadline for entries is 31st October 2019. Entries are to be emailed to Rose at info@gulgongshow.org.au.
HOW TO WORKSHOPS
The Show Society are looking at opportunities to help the community prepare their entries for Show Day. We have endeavoured to create some "How to Workshops." At the moment we have had a person volunteer to run a mini cake decorating workshop. Workshops will incur a small fee to cover expenses. Our Showgirl information day & luncheon in the Christmas holidays will be part of these workshops. Please contact us to let us know if you would be interested in taking part in the Cake Decorating workshop, our Showgirl luncheon/information day and to advise what other kind of things would you like to learn. Also, if you have a skill you wish to share in a workshop, please get in touch by contacting Rose at info@gulgongshow.org.au.
FUNDRAISING AT OUR IGA COMMUNITY STALLS
Our next two IGA Community Stalls will be held Friday 1st November and Saturday 14th December. We welcome donations of baked goods and saleable items. They can be delivered to the stall on the day from 8.30am. We are always looking for volunteers to help us. If you can spare an hour or two or wish to stay for the morning, afternoon or all day on either day we would love to hear from you. Email Rose at info@gulgongshow.org.au.
FUNDRAISING THROUGH SPONSORSHIP
The Show Society welcomes support via sponsorship at any time of the year as we are always seeking ways to improve and develop what we offer at our Show. There are advertising packages available for our Rodeo, general sponsorship and other special projects. There are always things we are looking for financial assistance for like at the moment we would like new signage for our IGA community stalls so we look more professional out in the community and to help people clearly identify who we are!
