The Mackenzie A&P Show is affiliated with The Royal Agricultural Society, which was established in 1924 and is one of the few organisations in New Zealand with a "Royal" charter. With the support of the Royal Agricultural Society of New Zealand (RAS), the Mackenzie A&P Show promotes the development of agricultural, pastoral, horticultural, stock-raising and forestry resources in the South Canterbury Region. The RAS encourages our Show to take initiative and to show forward thinking in the rural sector to promote and encourage excellence in the rural community... The management committee of the Mackenzie A&P Society is comprised of 47 members who meet monthly and all major decisions are made by committee. There are an additional 100-150 volunteers who assist around Show time and 332 family memberships. The committee pays only two part-time contractors to provide secretarial and treasury services. Everything else is done completely by volunteers... The 126th Mackenzie A&P Highland Show..
