After rain forced its postponement a fortnight ago, the organisers could not have been more pleased with the conditions for the annual Yarraman Campdraft held on Saturday.
Chris Knowles, who is retiring as the campdraft secretary, said it was not too hot and they had received just enough rain in the lead up to settle the dust.
She said they had received 132 entries in the Novice Draft and about the same number in the Maiden.
The Yarraman campdraft has traditionally been staged in January but was shifted after being washed out for several years. It was then moved to June and now November.
No date has been set yet for the 2013 event.
The next campdraft to be held in the South Burnett will be at Nanango on February 9-10.
