Huge program of events for seniors across October

A BROAD range of events will be on offer across the entire Indigo Shire for October as the Victorian Seniors Festival kicks off. The Indigo Seniors Festival aims to celebrates its community members aged over 55 and honours the significant contributions they make to the vibrancy of the shire. This community-driven festival is run in conjunction with the Victorian Seniors Festival and was launched at the beginning of the month with events and activities happening across the Indigo Shire. Indigo Seniors Festival Guide showcases the breadth of free and low-cost activities and events being run for the Indigo Seniors Festival. There’s a little something for everyone: come-and-try sessions, social lunches, photography workshops, trivia and even an Op Shop fashion parade. Indigo Shire Council chief executive officer Trevor Ierino said the huge program of low-cost and free events would be spread right across Indigo. “This month-long festival is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate and engage with our senior community members,” he said. Funding between $100-500 was made available from the State Government to assist groups and organisations with nominal expenses to run an activity or event for the festival.
