Congratulations to the Esk Show Society Miss Showgirl Quest and Rural Ambassador entrants.  I was honoured to be asked to be one of the Judges of the evening “Night of Nights”, and I commend the girls on the way they conducted themselves during the interviews.  I wish every girl the very best and especially wish them a bright future achieving their dreams.  I also wish to extend my congratulations to the Esk Show Society for their innovative changes/additions made to this year’s show schedule.

I attended the Watts Bridge Memorial Airfield Inc and the Red Thunder Formation Team for a classic airfield breakfast.  There was a great turn out who enjoyed breakfast and I was offered a tour around the grounds, buildings and the planes.  It was a very interesting morning talking to the many pilots and understanding the passion they hold around flying.  Future plans of the organization was also expressed.
