Bathurst Young Woman Ambassador Isabel Smith has been named a finalist in the Land Sydney Royal AgShows NSW Young Woman Competition.
Competing in the Zone 6 finals this weekend held by Dubbo Show Society, Isabel was one of three ambassadors (Bathurst, Coonamble, Dubbo) to be selected to progress into the final stage of the competition at Sydney Royal Easter Show.
18 girls from across the Central West came together in Dubbo on Saturday to represent their communities and country show societies. The zone competition consisted of an interview and luncheon followed by a dinner function with an on-stage interview.
Isabel shared her knowledge on the Bathurst community, the issues facing the agricultural industry and her passion for her career in forestry and mental health in regional communities.
“It was an incredibly rewarding day,” Miss Smith said.
“To be surrounded by so many inspirational and successful women while also being so supportive of each other was such a privilege.
“Thank you so much to Bathurst Show Society and the Young Woman Ambassador Committee for their support as well as the judges, contestants and everyone involved in the competition.
“I can’t wait for Sydney, it’s going to be a great experience and I am looking forward to the personal development and growth I can gain from this opportunity.”
Isabel was supported by her family, partner and members of the Bathurst Young Woman Committee and Bathurst Show Society. She will attend the Sydney Royal Easter Show in April and compete on Sunday 13th April for The Land Sydney Royal AgShows NSW Young Woman of the Year.
