AN electric motorbike, valued at $3000, has been donated by local business Alpine Motorcycles/Regional Ag as the major prize for this year's Myrtleford Show raffle.
Every year the Myrtleford Show holds a raffle with the proceeds going to a worthy local charity or member of the community in need.
"The Myrtleford Show committee would like to thank James and the team from Alpine Motorcycles for their very generous donation," Myrtleford Show chief trade steward and events coordinator, Belinda Ramia said.
"Without the support of these businesses we wouldn't be able to have such a fantastic show day for our community to enjoy."
Alpine Motorcycles/Regional Ag assistant manager, Kate Bruton, said the company as a whole is happy to help out.
"We like to get behind the local community and their events, that's what we're all about," she said.
"If we can't make it to all of the events in the area, we try to get to the local ones.
"We try to sponsor as many local events as we can.
"We're a major sponsor of the upcoming Alpine Rally."
Myrtleford Show secretary, Amy Kirk, said the committee is looking forward to show day on Saturday, October 26, with the raffle to be drawn at 3.30pm.
"We just want to say how grateful we are for donations, either through goods and services, or cash," she said.
"Details of all of the competitions at the show this year were released online on Tuesday, August 20.
"Information is on our website and across our socials and you can buy your tickets for this year's show online."
