The day featured plenty of activities for young and young at heart and co-organiser of the event, Councillor Judi Smith, said it was a fantastic day had by all. 

“It was wonderful,” she said. 

“It was a lovely day weather wise, and a lovely day in terms of lots of people coming and enjoying the exhibition and what was on offer.

“Twenty-five kids joined in the free workshops and the jumping castle was very, very popular.”

The day also featured performances from two local dance groups and the Cowra and District Town Band. 

Run by the Cowra Tidy Towns and Urban Landcare Committee, the awards challenge entrants from Preschool to High School to make work using recycled materials that fit this year’s theme “Showtime”.

“We will have a meeting in two weeks’ time and debrief from this year,” she said. 

“We’ve already got some ideas for changing things around a bit.”
