34th Freds Pass Rural Show

2012 PROGRAM ADDITIONS

Whilst some of the components of the 2012 Show are still in the development stages, the following is an outline of the proposed program of events. This program is subject to change or alteration without notice.

2012 promises to be an exciting event. Whilst the format and nature of the Show will remain unchanged and with the emphasis still on its rural and agricultural roots, the Show will provide something of interest for everyone. This is truly a family event. This year we will be introducing some new components to the Show that will encourage greater participation by our young people, particularly those in the rural and remote areas of the Northern Territory. Some of these components include:

  • Performances by young people
  • Interactive Workshops

PERFORMING ARTS

In 2012, young people between the age of 10 to 25 years will be encouraged to participate in the Show to showcase their talents and achievements to the wider community. Each and every participant will leave the Show with feedback from their performance and will leave with the knowledge that their contribution to the Show was an integral part of the success of the Show.

EXHIBITIONS/ DISPLAYS

2010 saw over 200 companies, government organisations and community groups exhibit at the Show. Both government and private sector will be encouraged to exhibit at the Show however the focus will be on interactive displays. The cost exhibiting will be incorporated into an overall sponsorship package for organisations who are interested in exhibiting goods and services. Alternatively a site only costs will be available for potential exhibitors/participants.

WORKSHOPS

2012 will see workshops introduced to the program of events. Workshops may include

  • Music
  • Arts/Crafts
  • Theatre
  • Indigenous Culture

Instructors from each of these disciplines will offer participants the chance to learn about each topic in an interactive manner. That is, the participants will have the chance to become actively involved rather than simply listening to lecture-style instructions. The workshops are open to everyone from all age groups. It is hoped that participants will be encouraged to further explore the social or professional opportunities offered to each area and get involved in community or professional groups from their particular topic of interest.

COMPETITIONS

RURAL ACHIEVER

The Champion from Freds Pass will compete for the title of NT Senior Grand Champion and NT Junior Grand Champion at the Royal Darwin Show.
