VAUGHAN SPRINGS CARNIVALSUNDAY 10 NOVEMBER 11AM TO 3PM
Miniature Train Rides & Speedy Slides, Three-legged Races & Brass Bands, Country Kiosk & Picnic Treats, Swimming & Dancing, Raffles & Prizes, Stories & Book Launches
A joyous country carnival celebration on beautiful Djarra Country!
The Friends of Vaughan Springs are delighted to announce the return of the Vaughan Springs Carnival. This much-loved community celebration is set in the historic and picturesque Vaughan Springs Reserve along the banks of the Loddon River, situated on Djaara Country and within the Castlemaine Diggings National Heritage Park.
The Springs are the perfect setting for this relaxed and fun picnic style family friendly event and everyone is invited to bring along their favorite picnic paraphernalia - tables, chairs, blankets, food and drink. The Friends of Vaughan Springs committee will also be opening the kiosk and serving a sumptuous spread of home made goodies in addition to bbq offerings.
In true carnival spirit, the day will include a program of rides, games, live music and storytelling. A highlight of each Vaughan Springs event is the powering up
of the vintage miniature train built by local
engineers in the early 1940’s. A delight for all ages with rides commencing at 11am.
Another favorite of the day is the Games Zone situated on the historic running track. Anyone who has
been to a Vaughan Springs event in the past will know what hilarity awaits for those, young and old, entering the sack, egg and spoon, three legged and kiddie horse races. Also on site some local DJing and Dancing.
