Leader of The Nationals and Federal Member for Maranoa David Littleproud has delivered a new multi-purpose covered area for the Dalby and District Show Society.
The shed was funded in partnership with the Show Society and the former Coalition Government, which provided $63,307 in funding from the successful Building Better Regions Fund (BBRF). “As the Federal Member for Maranoa I am proud to open a brand new shaded area that will continue to improve the first class facilities at the showgrounds,” Mr Littleproud said.
“This shed will ensure the show and the broader community have the facilities they need and deserve in the future. It will be used for local, state and national events, including the annual show, school camp drafts, rodeos and the Australian stock horse sale.
“Sadly the Albanese government has scrapped the BBRF program, with local organisations now having to try to source funding, but we are asking them to introduce another infrastructure program to help regional communities.”
The Dalby project was one of many which proved why the Coalition’s BBRF was vital for the regions and all Australians, providing funding for small grassroots organisations to build facilities for visitors to enjoy.
The Dalby and District Show Society has a strong and proud history in the region, with this year marking its 153rd show.
The Campervan and Motorhome Club of Australia will also host their annual rally at the showgrounds, attracting thousands of visitors.
