JAMESTOWN SHOW FLEECE COMPETITION 🐏

The 150th Jamestown Show 150th Anniversary is coming up fast and we want THIS YEAR’S wool section bigger and better than ever! 💙💛

Hide those standout fleeces from the wool bale and bring them to the show 🏆

Whether you’ve entered for years or have never entered before, we’d love to fill the pavilion with local fleeces and celebrate 150 years of country, community & tradition together.

If the committee was stranded at the showgrounds, who would survive the longest… and why? 😅

💙💛 MEET THE TEAM 💙💛

This week we’re introducing George Seppelt, Vice President, NASA Delegate & Show Announcer for the Jamestown Show, as we celebrate 150 years of country, community & tradition!

How long have you been involved with the show?
Since I was born in 1999, I haven’t missed a Jamestown Show. My dad was President in 2005, 2006, 2009, and 2014, so the show has always been a big part of my life. Some of my earliest memories are ‘helping’ in the Show Office. As I got older, my family entered cooking, eggs, fruit, and vegetables in the Stacey Pavilion, and Dad and I also spent several years showing poultry. I later joined the committee in media and marketing, became Rural Ambassador Convenor, and now serve as Vice President.

What’s your favourite thing about show week?
Seeing Victoria Park come alive for the community. Catching up with friends and seeing everyone come together.

What does 150 years of the show mean to you?
150 years is a major milestone. It’s important to celebrate our history while continuing to improve our show every year. Reaching Show number 150 is a true testament to the incredible community support behind such an important local event.

Finish this sentence: The Jamestown Show wouldn’t be the same without…
The continued support of our sponsors, volunteers, vendors, and community.

If the committee was stranded at the showgrounds, who would survive the longest… and why? 😅
Matt Scharkie — because he can talk his way into and out of anything!

💙💛 MEET THE TEAM 💙💛

We’re introducing Angus Barnden, Vice President of the Jamestown Show as we celebrate 150 years of country, community & tradition!

How long have you been involved with the show?
3–4 years.

What’s your favourite thing about show week?
Putting on a great event with a bunch of great people. Seeing the community enjoy everything show day has to offer, and taking my kids around to see all the different exhibits.

What does 150 years of the show mean to you?
150 years of exhibits, attractions, innovation, and change. It’s about showcasing what we’ve achieved and recognising how far we’ve come as a community, as a society, and as an agricultural industry.

Finish this sentence: The Jamestown Show wouldn’t be the same without…
The volunteers, community, and sponsors that make it all happen!

If the committee was stranded at the showgrounds, who would survive the longest… and why? 😅
Matt Scharkie — because he’d have his truck there, a bed, and a box of rum cans!
