Recognised as the largest event in the City of Casey, attracting spectators, families, judges, competitors, animals, activities and exhibitors from all over Australia.....and the opportunity for local businesses and clubs to promote themselves to a captive local audience, over two days of interest, fun and excitement. Please support and give thanks to our sponsors, whenever you can and if you
can spare a couple of hours a month to assist us or to help with the Show, I would love to hear from you.This schedule lists the many events, competitions and exhibits that you can enter either by post or online and we look forward to receiving your entry and wish you great success in your showing.
