Boonara Homestead is celebrating 150 years<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

April 5, 2012<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boonara Homestead, just 12km north of Goomeri, will be celebrating its 150th birthday on Pumpkin Festival weekend … and if you love antiques, fine music or history, then you’re going to want to be there!<\/p>\n

The homestead, located on the Burnett Highway, was built in 1862 for David Jones (of department store fame).<\/p>\n

Current owners Rob<\/strong> and Lorraine Goodchild<\/strong> have put together an impressive day of activities to celebrate the sesquicentenary on Saturday, May 26.<\/p>\n

A highlight will be an opportunity to have family treasures and collectibles appraised Antiques Roadshow-style by Gordon Brown<\/strong> from the ABC-TV show “Collectors”.<\/p>\n

Soprano Ana Marina<\/strong>, who starred alongside Anthony Warlow in Phantom of the Opera, will also be performing.<\/p>\n

There will also be a vintage fashion parade presented by local collector Linda Silburn; wine tasting and sales by Clovely Estate, Scottish and Irish dancing, a tug-o-war and other old-fashioned games, vintage cars, tractors and machinery, arts and crafts, a pipe band, and tours of the homestead.<\/p>\n

To top it all off, Nanango Theatre Company<\/strong> will be performing a skit about “The Wild Scotsman”, bushranger James McPherson who harried local travellers during the 1860s.<\/p>\n
