This experience, combined with her continued involvement in her family’s grazing operation at Monto has provided Brianna with a passion for the agricultural industry. She aims to promoting the significant role of agricultural shows in providing economic stimulus to the state, bringing communities together, educating the public about agriculture and promoting the vibrant communities who host these unique events across rural and regional Queensland.

Brianna joined the Next Generation executive committee in 2014 participating in the state final of the 2010 Queensland Country Life Miss Showgirl Awards.  She remains involved with the Monto and District Show Society as the Miss Showgirl and Rural Ambassador coordinator and holds the position of secretary/treasurer for the Burnett Sub Chamber.

She believes the Next Generation committee serves an important role to encourage youth participation in the show movement to ensure the traditions of each local show are able to continue into the future.  The connections with people who share a similar vision, a passion for rural shows and the industries they champion, is a motivating factor for Brianna’s involvement with the Next Generation committee. She hopes to encourage more people to become involved and volunteer with their local show.

Wanting to expand her knowledge of the show movement, Clare entered the Miss Showgirl competition in 2013 and won. She believes this allowed her the opportunity to take on more roles within the Gatton Show Society.

Clare is passionate about getting youth involved and was part of establishing a youth committee within her local show. By becoming part of Next Generation, Clare hopes to further build upon her knowledge of the show movement and network with other like minded people to continue to increase youth involvement.
