Pirates commandeer Coal Creek
PIRATES, buccaneers and landlubbers came together on Saturday at Coal Creek Community Park and Museum to search for hidden treasure.
Around 700 people joined in the fun of pirate day at the Korumburra park, with many dressing up for the occasion.
Site coordinator Rowena Ashley said the day was successful and on par with previous years.
“We got some really great feedback from a lot of the participants and we also noticed a lot of new people at the event this year too, which is great,” she said.
A best dressed competition was held at the rotunda, with Jessica Archer named best dressed female, Andrew Geary named best dressed male, Ruby Whiley was the best dressed child under seven and Braidon Arnold the best dressed child under 12.
Coal Creek is now gearing up for the Literary Festival on Saturday, October 31, and then Halloween on October 31 and the Buskers’ Festival on November 1.
