After a rainstorm the evening before, the Boggabri Show and Shine went ahead in beautiful autumn weather.
With 66 registered vehicles, numbers were a little down on 2024 numbers.
The colouring-in competition was very successful and the market stalls reported good support and the food stalls did a roaring trade from the foot traffic with many people making a day of it and staying on for the football trial games.
Four-year-old Carson Carter won the 0-5 years, seven-year-old Annie Stone, 6-10, and eleven-year-old Matilda Rowland won the 11 years plus age group for the colouring-in competition.
