BOX 219 COFFS HARBOUR 2450 President: Christopher Pearson Show Secretary: Margo Caba Entries Secretary: Karen Johnson or phone PRESIDENT: VICE PRESIDENT: SECRETARY: Minutes Secretary/Pavilion Coordinator: TREASURER: ASSISTANT TREASURER: PAVILION CHIEF STEWARD: ENTRIES SECRETARY: Christopher Pearson Pamela Corbett Margo Caba Peter Kimber Lorraine Tibbs Bill van Ryswyk Margaret Crawley Karen Johnson Presidents Welcome As we celebrate another Coffs Harbour Agricultural show in 2018 I looked around to see if 2018 was a designated International Year. Turns out unlike tradition no specific theme was nominated. Various bodies had offered Year of Millet Year of Healthy Planet but none were selected. Unlike outside influences the annual Coffs Harbour Agricultural show is a traditional event that aims to foster a closer relationship between the rural and urban aspects of our District. It goes further in promoting an understanding of where and how our food goes from the farm to the plate. The Coffs Harbour Show prides itself in finding ways to educate the next generation to appreciate how important good quality, clean and well managed foods and animals provide us with the basic staple foods we eat. In 2018 we are promoting a close level of co-operation between our own show next generation and the communities next generation so please take the time to share your knowledge with them as you walk around our many and varied attractions. Christopher Pearson 2018 Show president 2
