Show Society held a Mad Hatters Tea Party in the main street of Proston on Saturday morning.<\/p>\n<p>The reason was to announce the winners of this year&#8217;s Junior Miss Showgirl, Junior Rural Ambassador, Miss Proston Showgirl and Rural Ambassador.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The winners were:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Miss Proston Showgirl:<\/strong> Bianca Murtagh<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Rural Ambassador:<\/strong> Kiere Weisse<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Junior Miss Showgirl:<\/strong> Olivia Frahm and Steph Johnston (tied)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Junior Rural Ambassador:<\/strong> Graceanne Waterford<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Show Society Secretary Del Blanch said the Society were very happy with the number of young people wishing to participate in the awards.<\/p>\n<p>The Proston Show will be held this Saturday, March 8, at the Proston Show Grounds on the Proston-Boondooma Road between 8:00am and 10:00pm.<\/p>\n<p>It will be the Show&#8217;s 56th outing and the Show Society is hoping for the usual enthusiastic turnout at the grounds, despite the impact recent dry weather has been having on primary producers.<\/p>\n<p>The show will get underway with trade show displays, stud prime cattle judging and horse-riding events, followed by a Championship Dog Show and then show jumping, poultry judging, and a big range of pavilion exhibits and wood events, including the famous Proston Post-Ripping Challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Other great things to look out for this year include Viv and Maurie&#8217;s Shearing Shed with bottle-feeding of lambs; the Proston Stockman&#8217;s Classic; a fun Vintage Car Show; and bush poet John Major.<\/p>\n<p>From 6:00pm, the Show Society will be running a barbecue, karaoke and a bar for everyone who wants to party on.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;ll also be a fireworks spectacular lighting up the skies at around 7:00pm.<\/p>\n<p>Admission to this year&#8217;s show remains at $10 for adults, $5 for high school students and $3 for primary school students (under 5s are admitted free).<\/p>\n<p>A family pass for two adults and any number of children is also available for $25.<\/p>\n<p><strong>[Photos: Del Blanch]<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_58787\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-58787\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption
