Rotary’s Australia Day celebrations
The Rotary Club of Lilydale is inviting the community to join them at Lillydale Lake on Wednesday 26 January for an Australia Day celebration. Having held an event as part of the 100 Year commemorations last year, Rotary has decided to host a smaller scale event, with a free sausage sizzle, live entertainment and a wildlife display from 10am to 2pm to bring people together.
Author talk in Mt Evelyn
Author of Nikolai the Perfect, Jim McIntyre will finally be able to host his talk at the Mt Evelyn Community House and Reading Room on Thursday 24 February at 7pm. The free event was postponed multiple times last year but the long wait will be worth it to hear how Mount Evelyn inspired the author to set part of his book in the town.
Wildlife rescue session
Mount Evelyn’s Emma Cash from Bungalook Creek Wildlife Shelter will be hosting an online event to talk people through wildlife rescue and what people should do if they stumble on an injured animal. The online session will be happening on Saturday 29 January from 10am to 11.30am. Register for the event through the Yarra Ranges Council website here https://www.yarraranges.vic.gov.au/Experience/Events/Wildlife-Rescue-Helping-you-help-them
Creative students on show
Students from local high schools will be able to show off their Year 12 artworks at the Creative Showcase hosted by Yarra Ranges Council and Burrinja Cultural Centre at The Memo in Healesville. The opening night will happen on Friday 4 February from 7pm with the exhibition running all throughout February.
