DODGEM cars, high flying amusement rides and bungee jumping are part of the thrills and actions for young people attending the 2023 Boort Show.
There’s also Wicked Wildlife with their entertaining and educational wildlife presentations and Real Dinosaurs, the highly interactive energetic dinosaur adventure for the whole family.
Youngsters can also enter the Tiny Tots, Midi and Fashions on the Field events that will be judged during the afternoon.
And helping make the Boort Show a real family-friendly day, all children aged under 18 are admitted free.
YEAR 9 students at Boort District School have jumped at the chance to support rural mental health after attending an eight-week leadership program earlier this year.
They will be raising funds at the Boort Show with the yabby racing competition.
Yabbies have been part of bush cuisine for centuries, a popular summer pasttime across the Loddon is heading out to catch the Aussie delicacy, cooking them in the big pot, peeling and infusing with vinegar, dusted with a more than liberal dose of salt.
Students have been putting skills learned and developed on their leadership retreat into action in planning the races that will have the crowds cheering both yabbies and students for their good work!
There’ll also be showbags with Boort District School parents’ association selling a range of show treats and raising funds for important school projects.
THE fun of the show goes into the evening at Boort Park with live music and the stunningly spectacular fireworks display.
Popular group The Side Hustle will be pumping out the tunes during the evening with the fireworks timed to light up the sky soon after dusk.
A great way to relax after a hectic day of fun.
