The highlight will undoubtedly be the iconic Stick Shed.
The unique structure has been stabilised and is now deemed safe to allow the public access to the interior again.
The entire shed will be open on Sunday, and members of the public will be free to wander amongst the full extent of the vast area of bush-cut mountain ash poles.
Technically the weekend kicks off with the 127th Murtoa Show, the Art Exhibition and the Gala Opening of the Weekend on the Friday.
Other attractions of the Big Weekend include the Monster Street Market, and the Saturday night "film" movies.
On Sunday its the running of the Murtoa Cup, the Writers Breakfast, and Poets by the Pier, and of course the opening of the Stick Shed from 10am to 4pm.
On both days there are the Dunmunkle Sumpoiler's vintage rally at the Inland Freezing Works, and the Water Tower Museum & Concordia College which is showing the "Shearing of the rams" DVD.
Was at the Stick Shed today, is looking great for the Weekend. Bring your camera!
ReplyDeleteThe Stick Shed opening during Murtoa's Big Weekend was a huge success with more than 1,250 people taking the opportunity to go inside. Unfortunately if you couldn't visit on the 2nd October, you need to wait till next year, as the site is again closed to the public - mark it in your diaries!
