Roving Christmas carols

THE Lion’s Club Tatura’s annual Christmas carol extravaganza is still going ahead this year, albeit with a different look, but that won’t affect the Christmas cheer it will bring to residents across town.

On Friday, December 18, local singing sister duo, Amanda and Kylie, will start at 6pm at the racecourse and make their way around Tatura singing carols, stopping at particular points throughout their 20km journey, until they arrive at Stuart Mock Place around 8:30pm.

Amanda and Kylie will be supported by a professional amplified system on one of the vehicles to ensure residents can enjoy the carols while remaining socially distanced and from the comfort of their own homes.

Local emergency service workers will also be on hand to lend support and ensure the event runs safely and smoothly.

Carols by Candlelight Tatura is an annual event held in Mactier Gardens which attracts a crowd upwards of 400 people, with local kindergarten and primary school students also participating. The ‘on the move’ event of 2020 aims to bring the Tatura community together and deliver some festive spirit right to residents’ doorsteps.
