Did you bring the family to meet Maisy Mouse, Elmer and Peter Rabbit along with Authors and Illustrators of the books 'Halloween in Christmas Hills' and the 'Big Book of Christmas'?

The Rotary Eltham Town Festival was an amazing weekend of fun, laughter and delight as entertainer after entertainer lined up to delight young and old.

The Town Square was entertained by some amazing local kids authors and brave charactors like Elmer Elephant, Peter Rabbit and Maisy Mouse who all braved the heat for some hugs from the kids.

Punch and Judy, Circus in a Suitcase and Mudcakes all lit up the children's faces as Red the Clown took them through the journey.

Saturday night was finished spectacularly with fireworks uncompared. The colours, the sounds, the beauty of it was simply overwhelming! But handle it we did, as we enjoyed rides, yummy festival food and live bands.

Sunday followed with more stallholders than ever before and an array of amazing acts and of course, the pet parade.

Well done to the Rotary Club of Eltham for another great event proudly sponsored by the Eltham Chamber of Commerce.
