There were 51 schools participating on the day, 19 rounds of continuous play.
Participating schools came from Canberra, Queanbeyan, Braidwood, Goulburn, Temora, Cootamundra, Young, Murrumburrah, Binalong, Bowning, Wee Jasper as well as the local area.
Many children, teachers and parents left saying Thank you for a great day, and that they would be back again next year.
The Carnival is not possible without the co-operation of both the Boorowa Central School and St Joseph's School and their communities.
Many hours are spent in preparation for the Carnival, as well as on the day.
Both schools are very grateful for the support given to us by the local secondary students.
We were very fortunate to be able the use the new facilities at the Showground, which were fantastic.
Special thanks to the Hilltops Council for all their assistance, Boorowa Community Bank, Boorowa Recreation Club, Netball NSW, Touch NSW and the many Boorowa community members who volunteered to help with car and bus parking, line marking, barbecue cooks, canteen workers and First Aid.
