The perceptions by the current committee that the Events in the Festival held in 2017 were not supported by the community groups are untrue. It was disappointing to not see the Art, Gardens, Penny Farthing Bike Group, Model T Ford & Veteran This Week’s Specials Cars Groups, & Photography Group & the well supported ‘Dinner Purchase 2 products and on Drayton’ a unique community Event were not included in this EFTPOS Crumbed Lamb Chops...... $9.99 kg year’s Festival. get the 3rd product FREE AVAILABLE I speak for & on behalf of volunteers from almost all our Solution in classifieds section PERFECT FOR Chicken Burgers...... $12.50 kg organisations who were shoved aside so that markets & a dance MOTHER’S DAY!! were basically the only events for the weekend.
