FESTIVE SPIRIT HITS A HIGH NOTE! Hundreds Attend Carols By The Beach

A light dusting of rain did not dampen the spirits at Carols by the Beach which was held on the Airlie Beach Foreshore last Sunday.

Hundreds flocked to the event which saw the Proserpine Citizens Band delight and almost 200 students from Cannonvale State School perform some of the season’s favourite Christmas songs.

The cheeky green grinch stole the show with his mischievous antics, enticing a trail of squealing kids to follow along in his wake. The event culminated with Santa’s arrival in the bright red fire truck.
