Gympie Show 2018. Gympie Show Society Vice President Warren Smith has added his voice to that chorus, saying âwe need to do everything we canâ to make sure the Show doesnât miss a second consecutive year. âIt has been a tough couple of years but the support from the Gympie Community generally has been outstanding,â Mr Smith said. âCOVID wiped out last yearâs Show, and almost wiped out the Show Society. Had it not been for a great management crew and team of volunteers, as well as our casual staff, and grants from the State and Federal Governments, along with our Markets, we would not be here.â
