Representatives from each of the communities, Mansfield Shire and FFM will be attending.

Note: We have been playing musical venues since this event was first published. Due to community interest and a free breakfast! the Old Library is too small a venue so we have moved the gathering across the road to the fire station. However, if the weather is suitable we will be outside under the trees near the Community Centre BBQs. A lovely location to spend the morning and not far from the fire station or the community centre. See you there.
