Carols at Twilight
16 December 2010 |
A merry time was had by all at the Carols at Twilight, held at Logan North Library December 14. Members of the Brigalow Country Community Club provided the music, and the audience was in fine voice. Even one of the librarians joined in the carolling! A surprise visit from Santa meant the children could have their photos taken with him, and they all received a small gift.
