The all breeds heifer show was held under cover at showground. The previous day a young farmers challenge was held and many competitors and exhibitors stayed overnight.

Both events were organised by Cameron Yarnold, president of the Manning Valley branch of the Holstein Association. 

All the catering was taken care of thanks to sponsorship. In fact, both events attracted good sponsorship from local businesses.

Also supporting the heifer show was the beef cattle show team from Chatham High School.
