Carols by Candlelight

THE cold and rainy weather of the last few days cleared and it was wonderful mild weather for the Carols by Candlelight at Victoria Park No. 1 Oval on Sunday, December 18, 2016. The event was compered by Brett Murray from 2DU and Matho and Julez from Zoo FM. A good crowd enjoyed the Christmas carols with Christmas hats and t shirts in abundance.

Soloists were plentiful and the Dubbo Theatre Company Choir and the PCYC Drama Club also contributed. The Dubbo District Concert band played for most of the night and the crowd sang and waved their candles as the sky grew dark. Father Christmas made his expected appearance around 8.30pm and was soon mobbed by the many kids in the crowd.

All in all, it was a lot like Christmas was fast approaching and the community had gathered to celebrate and share some Christmas cheer.
