2013 MT LARCOM SHOW UPDATES

17 June 2013

• Check out this Gladstone News Weekly cover for an entry form to win a weekend to Fraser Island including boat transfers.

• APLG once again this year have partnered with us and provided the show with a brand new 100 seater portable grandstand. (Will be available for use by other community groups).

• Due to Suncrest Homes support our smaller stables have been fully re-roofed and are now ready for the show. Roy Atkinson (owner) from Suncrest Homes and his workers have worked tirelessly to make this happen. Steelline deserve a big thank you as well.

• A big apology to all our show patrons - this year we had planned and worked towards a new roof over the bar. Footings were pored, partial kit arrived, but the company who makes the extra pieces of the kit had their production altered due to machinery failure. but will be ready for next year.

• Thank you to GAGAL who have cemented our APLNG grandstand (70 seater), ready for this years show.

• Gladstone Job Skills provided sponsorship in the way of any expenses associted with the concreting of the grandstand. Mt Larcom Show extends their thanks.

Thanks All, 

Look forward to seeing you all this weekend
