Campbell Town Show 2026 was once again an enjoyable day for Marananga. We only took a small team this year with just a handful of ewes. If the season had been kinder we would have taken our usual full team with the inclusion of rams. We were awarded 1st and 3rd in the largest Hampshire Down ewe class of 10 entries with a 4 yr old ewe and a 6 yr old ewe and we were also awarded Reserve Champion ewe with a maiden shore ewe so came away with a smile! A big thank you to our wonderful helpers - Duncan, George and Jess from Chemvet - we couldn't have managed without you. Congratulations to all who exhibited, it certainly made for an entertaining and sociable day. Here's to 2027!
