Sculpture on the Edge
Teams limbered-up for the annual B Active Christmas games at the Eumundi Amphitheatre on 8 December. Much merriment ensued with the tossing of Christmas wreaths, wrapping the human Christmas tree and hunting for elves all with a healthy dose of squats, wall-sits and pushups. Thank you Brooke for another year of fitness and fun!
Sculpture on the Edge at Flaxton Gardens was once again a beautiful setting for around 200 internal and external sculptures. Artists from around the world submitted works and this year there was a prize for emerging local artist won by Mieke van den Berg.
Hall celebrations Eumundi and District Community Association members celebrated the recent upgrade of a new verandah for the Old Scout Hall with a lovely luncheon catered by Belinda Sale. Many thanks to local architect Andrew Hillhouse and builder Daniel Lees for doing such a great job.
Christmas in Cooroy Christmas in Cooroy was celebrated with lots of jingles and laughs. Santa arrived in style and his sleigh outside Memorial Hall was greeted by a long queue of children waiting to tell him their Christmas wishes. The Great Santa Race was a success as always, the children’s decorated bicycle competition a treat to behold and The Butter Factory art exhibitions and craft stalls were popular. The evening concluded with the lighting of the Cooroy Christmas tree. 14
