A modified, online version of events will unfold on October 24-25, with a raft of activities focused on giving the younger generation an opportunity to express their creativity.
Story writing, cooking, Lego and more form the entry categories, most of which are derived from the show’s arts and craft pavilion which has consistently been a major attraction over the years.
President Karen Creighton said it was the committee's prerogative to make sure Cobram would have a show in 2020, regardless of COVID-19.
“It was always a priority to get a show in some shape or form - when the committee made the decision to cancel the event initially, we knew we had to do something,” she said.
“A lot of children have been looking forward to the show, so we have tried our best to cater for them during these strange times.
“It is not a major event like most years, it is mainly for the kids.”
With the show only a month away, Mrs Creighton has put the word out to all district schools to give this year's show the best chance of succeeding.
The committee is piecing together an application for a government grant to assist in the covering of expenses, affiliation fees and insurance costs, and members are counting the days until the show goes live.
“We are asking for participants to take photos of their entries and send them through to cobramagshow@yahoo.com,” she said.
“It will tie in with school holidays, so we hope plenty of children can use the time to come up with some amazing crafts for the show,” she said.
“Entries close October 21, while the cut off for story writing is October 16.”
Mrs Creighton said the winners will be announced on the weekend of the show.
