JUST forty minutes from Ballarat, the Greendale Drive-In is set to return Friday, 26 March with fun in store for the whole family.<\/p>\n

Greendale resident Kristin Sargent said she decided to organise the event with another local mum, Sarah Duncanson, as a way of connecting with the community.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince the trial run of the drive-in in November last year we have reignited the social club in Greendale and now head that up also,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had heard that Greendale used to have lots of events, including drive-ins hosted by the old social club years ago but such events had not happened in around eight years as those families had grown up and moved on.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving lived in Greendale for two years I felt as if I wasn’t really finding myself connecting with the community and with soon to be having a family I thought I should do something to change that situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to the main feature film, The War with Grandpa, the drive-in event will also feature an Easter twilight market, local food trucks, musical entertainment and a kid\u2019s activity arena with face painting.<\/p>\n

Made possible thanks to the Moorabool Shire and The Greendale Social Club and Assets Committee, Ms Sargent said it has already had a huge positive response from the community.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was such a hit we’ve been given a grant by the council to do this one coming up which is great,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

With gates set to open at 5pm, be sure to secure your tickets before the event at greendaledriveinmarch26.eventbrite.com.au<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
