Legendary Australian fast bowler, Glenn McGrath, will be the official face of the NSW Tourism Award winning NSW Caravan, Camping, 4WD and Holiday Supershow in 2007. McGrath will promote the caravan and camping Supershow through a series of marketing activities leading up to the highly anticipated event to be held in April. “The NSW Caravan, Camping, 4WD and Holiday Supershow is all that I love about the touring lifestyle. I visited the show with my mum and we were both blown away by the hundreds of displays of caravans and other vehicles to get you on the road. We were keen to look at the destinations exhibits for some ideas of unique places to visit on holiday,” said Glenn McGrath. “Among club team mates, McGrath is affectionately referred to as “Millard” for his early years living in a Millard Caravan in a van park south of Sydney. “I drove down from Narromine with my mum, towing my Millard caravan. I made friends with the people within the park and became good friends with a fellow from a neighbouring caravan,” McGrath recounts. “Now that I am retiring from international cricket after the 2007 World Cup, I plan to spend more time with Jane and the kids and maybe even take them on a caravan holiday somewhere in Australia, after touring the world for cricket, I realise how good Australia is,” says McGrath. The transformed Rosehill Racecourse will be host to the 2007 Supershow, held from 14 - 22 April 2007 and will showcase the latest and greatest from the caravan and camping and 4WD industry. Attracting over 85,000 annually, the Supershow is hailed as the best leisure show in NSW with over 400 exhibitors displaying caravans, motorhomes, camper-trailers, tents, caravan, camping and 4WD vehicles and accessories, holiday destinations and more. In addition, the Supershow acts as a forum for tourism operators and holiday parks to promote regional tourism. The Supershow has been recognised for its commitment to promotion of regional tourism and support of the community, at the 2006 NSW Tourism Awards, where it received the award in the Significant Events and Festivals category. “The Supershow is all about touring and experiencing the beauty that Australia has to offer. Caravanning and camping holidays have been a part of Australian culture for generations. We are overwhelmed that Glenn has come on board to show Australia the best that caravanning and camping has to offer through promotion of the Supershow,” said Mr Barry Baillie, CEO, Caravan and Camping Industry Association of NSW (CCIA). The NSW Caravan, Camping, 4WD and Holiday Supershow will be open from 10am to 5pm daily with free parking for all visitors. Admission costs are $17 for adults, $11 for seniors and pensioners. Children under 16 years are admitted FREE when accompanied by an adult. For further information please visit www.supershow.com.au.
