Lake Bolac Speed Shear 2026 | Proud Diamond Sponsor

Arlan Davine • November 1, 2026

At Elevate Financial Planning, we believe being part of a community means more than simply doing business there. It's about building connections, supporting local events and giving back to the places that have helped shape who we are.


That's why we're particularly proud to announce that Elevate Financial Planning is a Diamond Sponsor of the 2026 Lake Bolac Speed Shear.


A connection close to home

For Arlan, founder of Elevate Financial Planning, Lake Bolac is more than just another country town. It's where he grew up, and a community that remains close to his heart.

Growing up in a regional community gives you an appreciation for the hard work, resilience and commitment that goes into running a farm, raising a family and building a business.


It's also why Elevate has a particular interest in helping farming families navigate some of the financial decisions that come with rural life.


Supporting farming families for the future

Financial planning for farming families can involve some unique challenges and opportunities.


From farm succession planning and intergenerational wealth transfers to retirement planning, superannuation and protecting what you've worked hard to build, getting the right plan in place can make a meaningful difference.


At Elevate Financial Planning, we work with individuals, families and business owners to make these decisions easier to understand and navigate.


Supporting the Lake Bolac Speed Shear is another way we can stay connected to the rural communities that mean so much to us.


A great day out in Lake Bolac

The 2026 Lake Bolac Speed Shear promises to be a fantastic day, bringing together locals and visitors for a celebration of agriculture, community and entertainment.


Event details:

  • Date: Saturday 28 November 2026
  • Location: Lake Bolac Hotel
  • Farmers Market: 8am – 12 noon
  • Speed Shear: From 12 noon
  • Live music: Tattooed Angels from 6pm


There will be plenty happening throughout the day, with market stalls, the speed shear competition, food, drinks and live entertainment.


Whether you're a local, a former Lake Bolac resident or just looking for a great regional event, it's well worth putting in the calendar.


Proud to support the communities we call home

We're grateful to the Lake Bolac Speed Shear organisers for the opportunity to come on board as a Diamond Sponsor.


Local events like this don't happen without the support of volunteers, local businesses and the wider community. We're proud to play a small part in helping make it happen.


We hope to see plenty of familiar faces there!
