Numurkah Show Hit by Heavy Rain Delays Exhibits
The Numurkah Agricultural Society faced heavy rain that reduced gate takings from about £90 to £64 and kept many exhibits off the grounds. Despite the travel hardships and fewer entries, the fifty-first show proceeded, with strong interest in draught, trotting, and hunting events, and organizers praise the teamwork and improvements like new loose boxes for Clydesdales.
