Why do you volunteer at the Queanbeyan Show?
In 1996 I competed at my very first Queanbeyan Show on a pony that my Nan Mac had bought for me- his name was Frenchie and I was only 9months old. Then in 2019 our 1st daughter competed at her first Queanbeyan Show on a pony called Barney- she was only 9months old too! She is now 5 and has 2 little sisters who also love attending the Queanbeyan Show every year with their ponies. The way my girls light up with excitement as they see the horses, rides and other kids means everything to me. Being a part of that, helping to make those moments happen, fills me with pride and joy- that's why I volunteer at the Queanbeyan Show.

I volunteer at the show to give back to the community. Bringing a smile to everyone's face when they come to a good old country show is worth the time and effort. Proud to be apart of amazing team who brings the show together.

The Queanbeyan Show unites the whole community in a fun-filled weekend. For some, it’s a time when they get to show their hidden talents in a variety of arts and crafts, baking, photography and even Lego building. For some, it’s the first time they realise where an egg comes from. For me, as a volunteer, it’s the pure satisfaction of seeing that joy and unity come to fruition.

I volunteer at the show to give back to my community. Queanbeyan is where I grew up and seeing the smiles on young kids faces on show day is something special, and it’s something special to say I helped achieve that.

Why do you volunteer at the Queanbeyan Show?
I volunteer at the Queanbeyan show because I want to support and continue the tradition of agricultural shows across Australia. I also love to see the community come together and enjoy parts of agriculture that many people do not have the opportunity to be apart of and experience regularly. Also, it's amazing to see all the happy, smiling faces and know that I was apart of creating them.

My little girls love riding their ponies at the show every year and it's great to be able to bring the show to the rest of the Queanbeyan community.
