Geraldton Show Hopes For New Grounds And Growth

A large Geraldton Agricultural Society meeting in the mayor's parlour discussed boosting the forthcoming show. Plans include securing a new ground near the railway yards, easing stock transport, and appealing to Minister Johnson for assistance. Delegates urged a deputation to press for faster site allocation and fair compensation for the current ground.

Community Show Plans Discussed At City Meeting

The council unanimously backed using ground for the show and explored combining societies to strengthen grants. They debated attracting crowds on day one afternoon, adding gymkhana events, mounted tug of war, and an industrial section plus a scholars section. Suggestions included early exhibitor entries, pre show visits by promoters, and helpers to assist stock exhibitors. The Mayor and Mr. Grant pressed for more farmer outreach and better judging, while concerns over large exhibitors and harvest timing were raised. A vote of thanks to the Mayor closed the session.
