The Waroona Agricultural Society Committee has made the hard decision to cancel this year’s show.
The committee president made the announcement on Thursday night, putting the decision down to the extra work load on volunteers and the added health risk to the community.

The show was scheduled to be held Saturday, October 10 and would have attracted thousands of visitors to the area.
