The Mudgeeraba Show Society Annual General Meeting was held on Monday 25th October 2021 at 7:00 p.m in the Bill Deacon Pavilion. ​

In addition to our members, in attendance was Cr Glenn Tozer, who took the chair when the 2020-21 Management Committee stepped down. Also present were Richard Allen, auditor and Sandra McSweeney, registered bookkeeper, both whose professional services we utilize.

Cr Tozer presided over the meeting when voting for the Management Committee took place. He began by announcing the positions of President, Vice President and Treasurer were unopposed and the position of Secretary/Manager was filled by appointment by resolution of the Management Committee after Kylie Holzinger announced her resignation, the position was advertised, and applications received. 

Voting was conducted to fill the six Management Committee member positions, as there were seven nominations received.  Scrutineer duties were conducted by John and Bronwyn Blair. 

The  2021-22 Management Committee is as follows:

President - Ella Parsons
Vice President - Melanie Bryson
Secretary/Manager - Kelly Caldwell 
Treasurer - Kylie Holzinger
Executive Members- Seeta Bull, Kelly McMahon, Ross McRae, Steve Page, Steve Profke & Marina Taulepa

I encourage all to attend the Show Coordination meetings held on the second Monday of each month to keep informed of all the activities within the Show Society and activities on the Showgrounds. We are already working on our next Show, which will be held on our pre Covid date... the last weekend in June, 2022. Come along and get involved! 


In the Show spirit,
Ella Parsons, President

Immediately following the AGM on 12 October, a brief Show Coordination Meeting was held.The membership in attendance were asked for expressions of interest for Section Heads, Assistants to Section Heads or Volunteers for the annual Mudgeeraba Show.  We will also implement the Sub Committee for Show Planning and Preparation meetings - dates to be announced.  This was introduced last year and deemed highly successful and valuable.

The next Management Committee Meeting is scheduled for 2 November; the next Show Coordination Meeting scheduled for 9 November 2020. Again, if you would like to become a part of planning our annual Mudgeeraba Show or are interested in becoming involved with the Show Society, please come along to a meeting.

Attached is an invite to a webinar ‘Where’s the Funding?’ This is a GCCC hosted webinar which will be screened in the Wayne Baguley Office on 6 November at 12.30.  Please email the office if you have any questions or would like to attend.
