The Lowood Show enjoyed excellent weather on Saturday, with Show Society President Lynell Jendra thanking supporters and sponsors for success across the range of competitions and displays.
A highlight, the Elizabeth Boughen Memorial Trophy, was staged in the stud beef cattle section. The compettion, designed to encourage young judges attracted five competitors representing shows across the Brisbane Valley.
The winner, Kyran Petroff, representing Esk Show, amassed 98 points, with Lachlan Lehmann second on 96.
In the woodchop, the show featured the inauguration of a new competition in memory of Ashley Christensen, a competition stalwart who passed away earlier this year. The 275mm underhand handicap was won by Jordan Hinz, from Jack Argent and Gerald Youles.
Ms Jendra said that while adult entries in the home made cooking competition were a bit disappointing, it was more than addressed by a large number of entries in the pre-school and under 5s section.
The show featured a fireworks spectacular on Saturday night and a demolition derby with 16 cars, which thrilled the crowd of onlookers.
