THE iconic Rheola Charity Carnival will celebrate 150 classic events in 2023 after a meeting on Sunday decided to end a three-year hiatus.
But the committee needs volunteers to make the day possible and again be one of the region’s major Easter Monday activities.
“We will be finalising a program at our next meeting in January but I am canvassing the community for volunteers now,” said committee member Julie Piening.
“Until we know what support we will have we can’t fully plan the events to be held on the day.”
“Volunteering can be in the form of help leading up to the day such as setting up, help on the day even if only for a few hours - whatever people feel comfortable in doing.”
COVID lockdowns and stringent compliance regulations had forced the cancellation since 2020 of the carnival that raises money for health services in Inglewood and Dunolly.
Julie said the community was excited that the milestone sesquicentennial carnival would be held next year after the long wait.
