Victorian Agricultural Shows Ltd are pleased to be hosting both the State and National Final for the Rural Ambassador Awards this Sunday. It is bound to be a fantastic evening supported by people from all around Australia and New Zealand.

After a day at the Royal Melbourne Show on Saturday the State finalists are interviewed throughout Sunday followed by speeches on stage by each finalist. The speech topic this year is "What makes your Agricultural Show unique?"

The National Finalists are interviewed by a panel of four judges Sunday afternoon. During the presentation dinner they will each have an opportunity to be interviewed by Rob Gaylard, the MC for the evening, giving the audience an idea of their dedication to the Agricultural Shows in their home State.

The Weekly Times has a double page spread in it this week with a story on each State Finalist, giving you some insight into their passions and beliefs. Click on the photo to see the Weekly Times Story.
