2023 Murgon Miss Showgirl Amy Henderson and Rural Ambassador Patrick Noakes have a busy weekend ahead of them<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

March 17, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n

Visitors to the 99th Murgon Show this weekend will get the opportunity to admire all the upgrades that have happened at the showgrounds in recent weeks.<\/p>\n

There’s been demolition of old sheds, the creation of new a cattle washdown area, new ramps and gates.<\/p>\n

Volunteers have been working hard to make sure the grounds are in top condition for all this weekend’s action.<\/p>\n

The fun began on Friday night with cane toad races and hay stacking competitions as well as the more serious judging of the Young Paraders and Young Judges competitions.<\/p>\n

However, the main day of the Show is Saturday, with events happening in four arenas and inside the PCYC Pavilion.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gates open at 7:00am with the first ring events kicking off at 8:00am.<\/p>\n

A free “train” will help visitors get around the large showgrounds area.<\/p>\n

All the usual Show events will be happening: a dog show, ute muster, poultry show, equestrian events and stud and prime cattle judging.<\/p>\n

But this year there’ll also be a fashion parade, the Australian Army Pep Band will be performing and there’ll be dog high jumps and motorbike challenges (see Program, below).<\/p>\n

Fireworks will top off a big day at 7:00pm.<\/p>\n

Murgon Country Cabaret<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Murgon Show Society kicked off their extended Show activities with a Country Cabaret at Murgon Town Hall last month.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The night featured a supper, licensed bar and enthusiastic dancing into the night with music from MISfITZ.<\/p>\n

There was also a large multi-draw raffle with $1000 worth of prizes donated by Murgon and Kingaroy businesses and prizes for the Best Boots.<\/p>\n

Miss Showgirl Amy Henderson, Rural Ambassador Patrick Noakes, Junior Miss Showgirl Emma Lindholm, Junior Show Princesses Ellie Eagleson and Kate Macmillan, Miss Murgon Renee Irvine and Mrs Murgon Claire Kapernick were sashed.<\/p>\n

And the Show Society’s hard work won’t be over after this weekend … the volunteers have to quickly gear up again for the Murgon Daytime Rodeo which will be held at the Murgon Showgrounds on Sunday, April 2.<\/strong><\/p>\n
