Don’t miss next month’s 114th Byaduk Spring Show

The Byaduk local community is thrilled their Spring Show is back, having been cancelled for the past couple of years with COVID. It is set to be bigger and better than ever, and the committee is so excited to have the event back on the calendar.

So you need to put Saturday, head to the Byaduk Hall to experience the thrill of walking into a hall brimming full of flowers, craft, cookery and photography.

The stunning gardens from the district have such a big variety of flowers that are all displayed in the hall creating a spectacular show.

In addition, a wonderful range of stall holders will be selling their wares from 11am, Jo Levy from ‘For the Love of Flora’ will have a beautiful floral display, the Hamilton Vintage Car Club will have a display of cars on show, a sausage sizzle, face paintings, sale of plants, guess the weight of the lamb, and the legendary afternoon tea for which the Byaduk Show Committee are renowned. It promises to be a wonderful family day.

The organising committee is thrilled Anna Sweeney, WDHS Board Chair will open the show at 12 noon.

All proceeds from the show are going to the MRI Machine for the Hamilton Base Hospital and Anna will also give an update on their fundraising efforts.

In addition to the floral and craft entries, there is a cookery section with $300 prize money across a number of categories.

Start cooking up a storm to be in the running for Champion Joined Yoyos with prize money of $100 for the open section and $50 for the Junior Section, for 15years and under, along with Champion Decorated Cake winning $100 for the Open Section and $50 for the Junior Section. Age groups range from Pre Primary to Open.

The Community Scarecrow Section was introduced by Christine Elliott and was a great success, with the prize money of $100 going to a nominated educational facility of the winner’s choice.

The Brenda Millard Champion Rose is always hotly contested, along with the Cecily & Frank Holcombe Best Exhibit in Floral Art, the Mavis Haylock Champion Cut Flower, and the Shirley Gibson Champion Children’s Exhibitor.
