NEW SHEEPYARDS
|
Thank you to Ken, Garry & Peter Evans who have been working tirelessly in the heat & dust to build new sheep yards for our 2020 Gulgong Show.
Thank you for your hard work & dedication. We are blessed with amazing volunteers. Ken told us that some officials from the Royal came to visit and inspected the yards. They were very impressed with the design and quality of their workmanship. They were also able to give us some tips on modifications to make them even better. |

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!
If you would like to sponsor us please let us know by emailing Rose info@gulgongshow.org.au. |
