Golden Plains Shire Council Mayor Cr Gavin Gamble encouraged young people to get involved in the free activities on offer across the Shire.
Council is committed to providing a range of programs and activities across a diversity of townships to reach all young people across the Shire and we are excited to hit the road these school holidays, taking the free activities to Linton, Dereel and Inverleigh.
The Youth Roadshow events in Inverleigh, Dereel and Linton were partly funded by a $2000 grant from the Victorian Government’s Youth Festival to fund events across Victoria in September 2022.
