Festive magic
Merry and bright: the voices of Ann Larkins and Jacqueline Wheeler lifted the Christmas spirit.
Red nosed reindeer: Cecily and Sinead De Gooyer and Kadence Rawson had their candles ready to light up the night.
Santa Claus is coming: ready with her Santa hat, Piper White from Kardella (right) was waiting for Santa with Leongatha’s Molly Plymin.
Dinner and a show: Phil, Tracy, Jade and Leah from Poowong brought along a picnic dinner as they listened to the carols.
Looking like Christmas: Ayla, Ben and Holly Fowler and Nathan Halloday from Korumburra sang along at Carols at the Creek.
For all ages: Jeanette and Flynn Fowkes from Kardella South found a nice spot on the lawn to enjoy the carols.
SLEIGH bells could be heard jingling at Coal Creek Community Park at Korumburra on Friday night as the park hosted Carols on the Creek.
The South Gippsland Concert Band put on a fantastic show with singers Ann Larkins and Jacqueline Wheeler at the forefront.
Magician Lachlan Wilde, who participated in Coal Creek’s recent Buskers’ Festival and became a finalist in the judges’ section, volunteered to come back for Carols on the Creek and provide extra entertainment.
Despite poor weather conditions, attendances were triple last year’s. Most attendees were from Korumburra, Leongatha and Inverloch, showing a lot of support for the community event.
“Everyone is really happy and heading down with a picnic dinner. No one can be miserable at carols,” Coal Creek coordinator Rowena Ashley said.
Gold coin donations were given to help cover the costs of the night.
The band practices at Coal Creek and is open to members if anyone is looking to join.
