SPECTACULAR autumn weather, two great bands, sizzling sausages, Easter eggs and a bumper crop of visitors … Warburton couldn’t have asked for any more for their big Easter weekend.
The caravan park set the ball rolling with Easter activities for locals and visitors on the Saturday and the Annual Easter Fund-raiser took over on the Sunday with The Yarra River Band and The Mason Boys providing a great afternoon of live music and dancing on the football oval.
Organiser John Seegers said they couldn’t have asked for a better day.
“It was just a really excellent day and a lot of people said it was the best show we’ve had,” he said.
Mr Seegers said Warburton was ‘chock-a-block’ with visitors over the Easter long weekend and the two events had become very much part of the Warburton Easter experience for many of the regular visitors.
Money raised came from raffles with a beautiful hamper donated by the local lolly shop among the prizes, a sausage sizzle run by Warburton Primary School and the ever-popular face-painting.
Proceeds of the day will go to the Warburton Sporting Club and the Primary School with some small donations to other local groups.
