Up and down for great time

THERE was something for everyone at the 137th Allora Show last week with organisers putting on a smorgasbord of entertainment events.
Allora Show Society veteran president Shirley Cornhill said she was rapt with the turn-out.
“It was very good, mate,” she said.
“We had great weather and great exhibits throughout from dogs to goats to sheep to horses, cattle and poultry and, of course, the exhibits in the pavilion.
“Some sections were down on numbers from previous years and some were up so, in total, it was great.
“The bull ride of Friday night was fantastic and the Saturday night demolition derby was excellent – people are still talking about it.”
Nineteen cars entered the crash and bang event with Toowoomba’s Ben Langton being the last man standing.
Ms Cornhill, who has been at the helm for 23 years, said the show was well attended given recent weather.
“We had cattle people come from as far as Drillham, on the other side of Miles,” she said.
She said her highlight of the show was the continued support of the many volunteers.
Planning for next year’s event has already begun.
