The  Marsh Rural Ambassador Awards is open to males and females, twenty to  thirty years of age who have a strong commitment to the rural industries  and an involvement and passion for the Agricultural Show movement.

The  aim of the Marsh Rural Ambassador Awards is to highlight the importance  of young people in rural and regional Queensland, in particular those  associated with the Agricultural Show movement. The award identifies  those people actively involved in their local Show, who have a sound  knowledge of current rural issues affecting their local areas,  Queensland and Australia and have a strong affiliation with agriculture.

The  award seeks young people who symbolise the rural spirit – people with  vitality who are forward-thinking and with a passion for the land and  local agricultural shows.

The  competition is run on four levels. The local Show winner progresses to a  Sub-Chamber final where the winner competes in the State Final held  during the Royal Queensland Show (EKKA). The winner of the State Final  then competes at the National Final held at a State Royal Show. This is a  national competition, but with New Zealand joining us in 2008 it has  expanded to international status.

We hope to hear from you so feel free to reach out!
