Wow! Oberon is simply the place to be! Great weather and wonderful entertainment made the 110th Oberon Show and Highland Steam and Vintage Fair highly successful. Congratulations to the organisers of both events.
Hightop FM provided static broadcasts at both sites with music and interviews adding to the festivities. Team members, Russell Merriman and Rowena Bellingham, made performance debuts.
Rowena brought a fresh, hip selection of music and is our youngest broadcaster to date. Russell revealed great talent as the station’s roving interviewer at the Highland Steam and Vintage Fair.
Sale of T-shirts and raffle tickets raised over $1200. The raffle was drawn by Mrs Beryl Gibbons. Winners are: 1st – Bea Norrie $50 fuel from Shell Service Station, 2nd – Alexandra Tuson, dinner for two at Stormwater Café, 3rd – Ali Assaf, a 27-litre esky donated by Thrifty-Link, Oberon. Congratulations to the winners and a big thankyou to all the donors. Hightop’s team will not be resting on its laurels, much will be happening over the next couple of months.
Regular static broadcasts will continue from the markets and the team is already planning our next Coffee Plus. Tickets for the murder mystery dinner at Stormwater Café on Saturday May 1 will be on sale next week.
