November 20, 2004

A German Heritage Festival and Christkindl Market was held on Saturday 20 November from 11 am-4pm at Westgarthtown Reserve, Gardenia Rd, Thomastown. Visitors inspected the Ziebell Farmhouse with its historical displays, heard a recital of classical music on the Thomastown Lutheran Church harmonium, watched Austrian dancing and visited the Christkindlmarket, a traditional market selling Christmas gifts.

Although there was some rain early in the morning, the weather during the festival was pleasant.
