Lions Club event organiser and volunteer Keith Bryant expressed hope for sunshine, saying that volunteers are keeping everything crossed.
“It’s been such a shame that the weather has been against us the past few years, but we are optimistic that this year we will be back and in full swing for the community,” Keith said.
With a host of activities planned for this special Christmas event, the community is encouraged to pack a chair or picnic rug and head to Mactier Gardens on Wednesday, December 11 from 6pm to 9pm for a fun-filled, family-friendly evening.
Performances will feature students from Tatura Primary School and Sacred Heart Tatura, along with the Shepparton Brass and Wind Band and the Shepparton Pipes and Drums.
Keith also hinted at some surprise guest artists lined up for the night.
“We are adding to the mystery this year and have a couple of special artists attending the night too,” he said.
“People will have to come along to find out.”
The free event will also feature the traditional BBQ prepared by Lions Club volunteers, with sausages and chicken steaks on the menu.
Santa Claus will be in attendance and available for family photos throughout the evening.
“We are still confirming a few more things at the moment, but it should be a wonderful night,” Keith said.
“I’m really hoping for nice weather and a big turnout, with lots of people ready to sing.”
