The annual Kingaroy Christmas Carnival couldn’t go ahead each year except for the help of the South Burnett Regional Council … and one man in particular has earned praise from the organisers.
Kingaroy Christmas Carnival Inc committee president Craig Lucas recently presented a “thank you” plaque to council worker Ian Johnson, who has been involved with making the carnival a success for more years than he can remember.
Ian organises the road closures, signage and the wheelie bins, a vital part of setting up the festive fun.
He also stays on call throughout the event, and helps clean up after everything winds down.
The carnival is now just four months away, so organisers are meeting regularly.
Booking forms for stalls can be downloaded from the Carnival’s website
The Kingaroy Christmas Carnival committee will be holding their Annual General Meeting in the Carrollee Hotel’s meeting room at 6:00pm on Thursday night (September 1).
Anyone who would like to get involved in putting this year’s Christmas Carnival together is very welcome to attend.
