🌟 Young Woman Development Day – Join Us! 🌟

Are you a young woman in our district who’s passionate about rural life, community involvement, and personal development? The Young Woman Development Day is your chance to build confidence, learn new skills, and explore what the Sydney Royal AgShows NSW Young Woman Competition is all about.

This statewide program — formerly Miss Showgirl — has been empowering rural women for more than 60 years. It focuses on leadership, communication, community spirit and agricultural knowledge, helping entrants grow into ambassadors for regional NSW.

Crookwell has a proud history of strong representation, and last year our own Emily Greer progressed all the way to the State Final. She's not the only one, with Savannah Boutsikakis, Lauren Selmes and Verity Price all reaching this level in recent times. Their achievements reflect the depth of talent, commitment and community pride in our region.

If you’re curious about the competition, thinking about entering, or simply want to build your skills in a supportive environment, this Development Day is the perfect place to start.

📅 Date: 17 October 2026
📍 Location: Crookwell Showground
🕘 Time: 10am to 3pm

Come along, meet past entrants, ask questions, and discover how you can be part of this iconic rural leadership program.
