Good morning everyone! ☀️

Just a reminder that exhibitions start at 7:30am sharp, so please be ready to go early this morning.

☕ Papa Bens Coffee Van will be here bright and early, and the committee will have drinks, sausages on bread, and chocolates available for sale all day long.

🎟 Don’t forget to grab your last tickets in our Mother’s Day raffle for the beautiful cowhide mirror. Today is your LAST chance! The raffle will be drawn at presentations this afternoon.

💩 Friendly reminder to please pick up ALL manure around the grounds, including the main use areas. Many hands, make light work! If you are using stables, please return them how you found them! Cleaned out with shavings left in the middle.

Good luck to everyone competing today in Round 6! 🤠🐎

Pop over to The Pineapple Shack for all your Pineapple refreshments at Sugar City Barrel Racers on today at the Mackay Showgrounds.

They even have a special little treat for your furry oversized four legged friends! 🐎

⚠️ IMPORTANT PARKING INFORMATION ⚠️

Due to another event being held on the same weekend, no one is permitted to park past the big stables. Please refer to the map below.

You may park in line with the big stables, but not past them. Please be considerate of others when you park. To save space, please park side by side, reversed parked with rear trailer ramp facing the warm up fence or big stables.

As usual, there is also no parking permitted on the other side of the warm up pen.

If you have any issues or questions, please find a committee member on the day and we’ll be happy to help.

See you all tomorrow! 🤠
