General Interest Area

ACTION APLENTY IN GENERAL INTEREST PAVILION

With the Elmore Field Days dates this year falling within the Victorian school holidays the Committee has sought to present a range of programs and features that will create plenty of family appeal for farm families as well as visitors from the rural and regional communities throughout north central Victoria.

The General Interests displays in the George Holmberg Pavilion are always interesting, comprehensive and holding appeal for all ages.

The mix of innovative products and services, together with arts and crafts attract a continual stream of visitors.

One of the features this year will be the display by the Bendigo Textile Artists group who will display their handiwork at sites G17 and 18.

In addition the Group will be presenting a daily series of Craft Workshops to provide the opportunity to complete an article to take home.

Some of the choices are making a stamped black enviro bag, teddy bears pockets (with teddy included), scrapbooking a bird cage, felt and material flowers, bracelets recycled and much more.

A Bazaar sale trading table will include handmade items including girl’s frocks, toddler’s windcheaters, patchwork shopping bags, pin cushions, needle cases, appliqué rolls, brooches, teddy bears, small dolls, and dog jackets so there is plenty of opportunity for Christmas gift shopping.

As always the General Interest displays and sites in the George Holmberg Pavilion will be a hive of activity on all three days.
