S ELWYN A&P SHOWS<br />

Many committees around the region<br />

have already started preparation for<br />

the start of the A & P Show season in<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />

Many look forward throughout<br />

the cooler months to the fun and<br />

enjoyment that this day brings and of<br />

course the fierce competition to take<br />

out ribbons at these events.<br />

As much as there is friendly rivalry,<br />

the A & P Show also provides a chance<br />

for friends to catch up and visitors to<br />

come and see more of what the rural<br />

life involves.<br />

There is much to see and do at an<br />

A & P Show – whether you like arts<br />

and crafts, gardening, shearing, wood<br />

chopping, highland country dancing,<br />

vintage machinery and of course the<br />

competition for the elite breeders to<br />

have their livestock judged against<br />

their peers.<br />

At the Ellesmere A & P Show in<br />

Leeston you will also be treated to<br />

Horse Showing and Jumping, Country<br />

Kids competition, Young Farmers<br />

Agri-Sports, Wearable Arts and much,<br />

much more.<br />

Put the dates in your calendar now so<br />

you don’t miss out on an exciting day<br />

out for all the family.<br />
