Winning Team Ready For Show

2020 Cooyar winners … Miss Junior Princess Ella Kuhl, Miss Showgirl Brooke Barron and Miss Teen Showgirl Holly Barron

February 7, 2020

The annual show season is just around the corner … and Cooyar has kicked it off again with a special High Tea to select its showgirls.

The local show society hosted the afternoon event last Saturday in Cooyar Memorial Hall.

Guests had the chance to graze tables laden with tasty goodies as well as browse several pop-up fashion stalls set up in the hall.

Judges Sebastian Pyers, from Crows Nest; 2018 Crows Nest Showgirl Tayla Ryan and long-time Cooyar Show supporter Lynette Munt, from Toowoomba, interviewed the entrants in the Miss Showgirl and Miss Teen Showgirl competitions.

They also cast an eye over the eager entrants in the Miss Junior Princess competition for girls aged 11 and under.

The winners were then sashed on stage:

2020 Miss Showgirl is Brooke Barron, from Cooyar, who has just been accepted into a Bachelor of Nursing at the University of Southern Queensland

2020 Miss Teen Showgirl is Year 8 Nanango State High School student Holly Barron, from Cooyar

2020 Miss Junior Princess is Ella Kuhl, 6, from Rosalie Plains

The Cooyar Show Cocktail Party will be held at the Cooyar Memorial Hall on Saturday night.

Doors will open at 6:30pm and guests can get to enjoy a two-course meal, live entertainment by Cloud 9, and a licensed bar offering everything from exotic cocktails to non-alcoholic mocktails.

There’ll also be a free shuttle bus running around the Cooyar area.

Tickets for this 18-plus event are $50 for adults and they’ll be available at the door unless sold out earlier.
