SEVENTY people attended the Tooborac Community Dinner at the Mechanics Institute Hall last Saturday.<\/p>\n

The event was organised by the Tooborac Community Events Committee.<\/p>\n

Local chef Markus Zihlmann catered for the dinner and Merindoc Winery donated the wine.<\/p>\n

“We had a fantastic night,” said committee member Tanya Hancy.<\/p>\n

“It was a community focused event designed for people to come together to enjoy a delicious meal cooked by a local chef and drink some local wines.<\/p>\n

“We even had local floral arrangements sourced from local gardens and locally made candle centrepieces.<\/p>\n

“During the evening, everyone mingled and chatted, and we had great feedback.”<\/p>\n

“We are very grateful to everyone who attended and to all the volunteers who generously offered help both in the lead up and on the night.<\/p>\n

“We have a wonderful community.”<\/p>\n

Copies of Tooborac History Book were sold on the night. The book details the history of Tooborac from 1836-1986, and features stories of pioneers, family histories, sports, timber and schools.<\/p>\n

“There are copies still available,” said Ms Hancy.<\/p>\n

“They are $5 each and anyone who would like to purchase one can email bookings@tooborachall.org.au<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

The next community event will be the annual Christmas party on Sunday 8 December.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
