WANTED: 2025 Showgirls & Rural Ambassadors

The Herbert River Show Association has once again opened the gates to opportunity and celebration, as it announces the search for its 2025 Showgirl and Rural Ambassador. This cherished tradition not only highlights the vibrancy and talent within the local community but also honours the region’s deep connection to rural life and community values.

The role of Showgirl is open to women aged 18 to 28, regardless of marital status. It’s a title that represents elegance, confidence, and a deep appreciation for regional Queensland. Beyond the sashes and smiles, Showgirls are ambassadors for agricultural shows, promoting the importance of rural industries and helping preserve the cultural heart of country towns.

Equally important is the position of Rural Ambassador, open to both men and women aged 20 to 30. These individuals champion the growth and sustainability of rural communities and act as role models for younger generations. Whether married or unmarried, applicants are encouraged to bring their passion for regional development, leadership, and community involvement forewards.

Amanda Way is coordinating expressions of interest and can be contacted at a.way@bigpond.com.

In a time where rural communities continue to face challenges, recognising and celebrating the people who carry these towns forward is more important than ever. The 2025 Showgirl and Rural Ambassador will not only represent the Herbert River region but will embody the strength and resilience of country Queensland.
