A good crowd turned out for the Nathalia Show on Saturday, with strong interest in the competitions, arena events, the pet parade and the LEGO competition.
An estimated 1200 people passed through the gate.
Show secretary Ellen Morcombe said they had received some positive feedback on how the revitalised event worked out.
“We’ve got more young people on the committee who have taken on the roles previously run by older people for decades,” she said.
Horse event entries were down slightly, and may have been influenced by uncertainty over the ground conditions due to recent rain, but there were sufficient entries to be competitive.
“The pet parade was a standout with so many kids with different animals,’’ Ms Morcombe said.
“The LEGO competition was very popular, too, in its second year.”
