In this issue, we’re excited to spotlight one of the region’s most treasured traditions—the Home Hill Harvest Festival. This week, the elegant Students’ Ball had students lighting up the evening with their style and excitement, marking the beginning of another wonderful celebration in the Burdekin. This long-standing event continues to be a highlight for our younger generation, showcasing their pride in our community’s rich heritage.
As the festival season unfolds, the anticipation builds for the much-loved Town of Origin, an event that celebrates local pride and brings our community together through friendly competition. It’s always a highlight on the calendar, where sporting talent and community spirit shine.
Derby Day is also on the horizon, promising its usual mix of fashion, fun, and excitement. With its trackside energy and festive atmosphere, it’s no wonder this event has become such a favourite, drawing crowds who love the thrill and camaraderie it offers.
The Home Hill Harvest Festival truly embodies the heart and soul of our community, from the opening celebrations to the upcoming events. Let’s come together to support, celebrate, and enjoy this unique time of year that reflects the spirit, tradition, and shared joy of the Burdekin.
