More seating will be available for spectators at Woodenbong Showground, thanks to a grant from the Federal Member for Page Kevin Hogan.
“The Woodenbong Showgrounds is a great and well-used community asset,” he said.
“This grant of almost $9000 will allow the Progress Association to purchase portable aluminium grandstands to make sure there is enough seating for visitors and spectators.
“The new grandstands will be used by a number of groups that use the Showground’s facilities, including the Show Society, sports clubs and schools.”
