A relaxed, fun filled
weekend for the whole family
is forecast for this year’s
festival, celebrating our
rural heritage and a time
when life was a little less
hectic, when skill,
craftsmanship, entertainment

but when the results where
always worth the wait.

planned in and about
Millmerran in the week leading up to the
Australian Camp Oven
Festival, such as a Tennis
Afternoon, Lawn Bowls, Meet
and Greets, Art Council
Displays, the Millmerran
Museum will be open, as well
as organised tours.
