MRAG’s sold out lightshow dazzles visitors yet again



The town of Millgrove was awash with colourful rays on Saturday 12 April for Millgrove Residents Action Group’s (MRAG) annual light show.

The sold out event saw 350 attendees wander through dazzling light displays as they encountered the local legends of Millgrove, the theme for this year’s show.

Each encounter shed light on the influential figures who make up Millgrove’s past as participants were guided to Platts Falls.

The event is sponsored by the Yarra Ranges Council and the Community Bank Warburton-Yarra Junction.

MRAG president Maureen Halit said this year’s light show was an absolute success.

“It was booked out again, and along with the beautiful weather, it was amazing,” she said.

“Weeks and weeks of work by a big crew of dedicated volunteers went into the event.”

MRAG won the Yarra Ranges Council Community Group of the Year Award last year and in 2012.
