| Porongurup Market: Sunday 6th of March and Sunday 24th April- Porongurup Shop Gardens |
| Art in the Park: Tentatively on hold for 2011, due to DEC wanting to charge National Park Entry fees to all who come to view the Art. That makes this not for profit event hardly worth bothering with, as you cannot charge 2 entry fees (one to get into the Park,and one to get into the Art). If we cannot charge for entry to the Art, it not worth the immense effort to put it on. Very, very sad. Will keep you posted on any developments |
