PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Once again I’m delighted to contribute a few words of welcome to our Show.

The Committee is looking froward to a complete program for our 149^th Daylesford Show at Victoria Park Daylesford on Saturday 25^th November, 2023 (9am-3pm).

We again provide entertainment & friendly competition in all the traditional areas.

DDAS is participating in Junior Show and Rural Ambassador Awards. Entry details are in the schedule. Junior entrants prize money has been increased.

We offer a friendly day out in one of the loveliest showgrounds in Victoria, where everyone in the family should find something of interest. We are particularly proud of our free activities and entertainment for children, and I hope you enjoy this year’s Show.

See you there.
Don Harvey
President
Daylesford & District Agricultural Society

AG show Competitions

What would an Agricultural Show be without a little local competition.

Daylesford Show competitions:

• Stock including sheep and poultry
• Horses including Show Jumping
• Dog Championship
• Homecrafts including cookery, art, crafts, flowers, needlework, garden produce
• Photography

Junior classes as well, so our youngest can join in and increased prize money from 2023.

Entering competitions are a chance to improve your skills or learn new ones or perhaps you will inspire others to take up a craft.

Do you have better to compete against the best in the State?
So your skills are better than average why not enter a VAS competition. If you win one of these competitions you will then compete at the next level in the Midlands Group and perhaps then even go all the way to the Melbourne Royal Show.

Entries for Homecrafts and Photography are judged on Friday 24^th November and other competitions are conducted on Show Day.
