And the committee members are delighted to announce that a new initiative, the grand raffle for their 2021 Brigadoon Gathering is now live.
The raffle is packed with great prizes totaling more than $15,000 up for grabs.
A spokesperson said that first there was the bushfires, then the floods and rain, now COVID-19 which led to the cancellation of our 2020 Gathering.
"Because of this drastic chain of events we were unable to make any financial donations to our volunteer groups, specifically our donation of 10per cent of gate takings to the Rural Fire Service for their outstanding work," the spokesperson said.
"Even in the unlikely occasion that Covid-19 is still around and restrictions are in place the raffle will still go ahead."
The raffle draw is scheduled to take place during the next Brigadoon planned for April 17, 2021.
The spokesperson said that to date there had been some extremely generous people out there to which the committee was "deeply indebted."
