THE Wangaratta Show Society committee will undertake substantial pavilion and equestrian arena upgrade works thanks to Regional Agricultural Show Development Grants program funding.

The Wangaratta committee will receive $36,137 to upgrade cabinetry in the art and craft, cooking and horticulture sections at Wangaratta Showground, and upgrade equestrian facilities as well as replacement of a timber stage.

Nationals Senator for Victoria Bridget McKenzie said it was wonderful news for the Wangaratta community.
