Hiya Hinchinbrook Shire!

If you got out and about this last Thursday and Friday, we may have bumped into each other at the Community Day at Tyto or the Ingham Show! Even if you didn't see me, know that I was there to capture the fun moments, and you may even spot yourself in the crowd shots. Go and check them out in the pages of this week's paper.

I took my little sister to the show, and you can bet we went on the fastest, loudest, most thrilling ride... the teacups! Just kidding, we screamed with elation on one that flung us about in the air and then made the grounding decision to eat the fun carnival food and watch a show in the ring after.

We looked at all the displays and enjoyed the arts pavilion the most. From Terracotta warriors made by school children, stunning handmade quilts, felted toys and striking photographs, to gorgeous floral displays and creative cakes. The Ingham Show was the place to be on Thursday afternoon and all Friday.

Fun Fact: I entered as a Showgirl this year, and came runner-up! I thought I would throw my hat in the ring and give it a go. With one girl last year and two entrants this year, here's hoping the Showgirl contest keeps doubling year after year!
