Extra dollars to shows

LOCAL showground managers from across northern NSW have until mid-January to apply for a share of $700,000 in NSW Government funding.
Member for Northern Tablelands Adam Marshall said the funding was available under this year’s Public Reserve Management Fund supplementary round to support showgrounds.
“Local showground managers are invited to apply for grants and loans to assist them in the development, maintenance and improvement of their reserves.”
Showground committees have until 16 January 2014 to submit their applications for the supplementary round funds.
