Stewards Roles

What does a Steward do?

The Steward's role is one of the most important in running the Show. While each Steward's role is slightly different, there's a lot of similarities across the board.

A Steward is responsible for:

Updating the classes in their Section to keep them relevant and to maximise entries, and provide a copy of their Section for printing and distribution
Contacting new and existing sponsors for their Section, in conjunction with the Sponsorship Coordinator
Organise prizes and/or prize money
Organise a Judge
Be present during the accepting, judging and picking up of entries, and
Assist in the Working Bees to set up, and pack down the Pavilion

Now all this seems like a lot of work, but you are not thrown in the deep end with no floaties!! The Society provides you with a Section Box, filled with everything you could possibly need to run your Section, a handbook on what else you have to do in your role and a fantastic group of volunteers to work with who will help you learn the ropes.
