Carols on the Mountain – Ho Ho Ho! – in its 21 st year!

It’s coming up for the 21st year of Carols on the Mountain, and the volunteer team are looking forward to seeing the wonderful community come along to the very popular annual highlight for the Hills!

Held in the beautiful setting and natural amphitheatre at the Ferny Creek Recreation Reserve in Hilton Road, Sassafras, the event this year is on Saturday, 13 December.

Gates open at 6pm, with Carols starting at 7pm.

Performers include a great line-up of local choirs, school show bands, local dance groups and students from the local primary schools.

The barbecue will be fired up, with sausages, hamburgers and veggie burgers available at modest prices.

Cold drinks will also be available, along with a coffee van to keep the grown-ups caffeinated.

The Sassafras-Ferny Creek CFA Community Safety team will also be there to field questions you might have about the upcoming fire danger period.

As always, Santa will be arriving on the fire truck in plenty of time (a little earlier this year), so little ones will be able to get home to sleep off all the excitement.

Free parking is available in the Ferny Creek Horticultural Society gardens, so just follow directions from the event organisers.

The brigade would like to acknowledge our major event sponsors, which include Bendigo Bank, Daniela De Martino MP, Mountain Ash developments, Arthur Daleys FTG, Parkers Real Estate, Dine Divine and Divine Pantry, Willis Conveyancing, ISA Building and Construction, Kerry Kulken’s Magic Shop, Ferny Creek Horticultural Society, Ranges First National Real Estate, Code 1 Services, Discount Animal Supplies Lysterfield, Bell Real Estate, Dandenong Ranges RSL and VIQ Financial Advisors.

This is a community event brought to you by the Sassafras Ferny Creek CFA, so your gold-coin donation at the entry gates would be greatly appreciated in support of the brigade.

A booklet with the full program of carols will also be available for sale.
