Families and friends all flocked to the reserve to enjoy rides, games and even some tasty treats.

As luck would have it, Saturday, June 18 was a sunny and dry day, considering how much rain the Wimmera received earlier in the week.

It was a tad muddy at the reserve but nothing a good pair of boots wouldn't solve.

IN OTHER NEWS:

Bumper cars were the crowd favourite but there were plenty of rides so no one was left out.

There were plenty of grins all around as parents joined in on the fun, holding hands on the scary rides and waving from the gates on the less scary rides.

The community definitely came out in droves to enjoy this pop-up carnival and will no doubt be keen for another.
