Lions Club Community Fest roaring back to town

The Lions Community Festival and Market is returning to Taylors Lakes on Sunday, October 23.

After a three-year hiatus due to COVID, the event is returning for its fifth year for a day aimed at fun, community togetherness and raising money for charity.

The festival will feature market stalls, food vans, a performance stage, community displays and a kids entertainment precinct which will include a jumping castle, Lions train and a special fairy visitor.

There will be fundraising at the event for the Australian Lions Children’s Mobility foundation, a group assisting children who are affected by Cerebral Palsy by providing funding for Hart Walkers and other mobility devices.

The centre stage will include seven acts kicking off from 10am, including traditional Vietnamese dance group AVA, the ELS School of Dance, and traditional music and dance group Croatian Dawn.

Lions Club of Taylors Lakes vice president Phil Clinkaberry said the club is excited to run the festival again.

“Our role as a service club is to bring the community together so it always brings us pride, and the charitable side is really important to us too,” he said.

Mr Clinkaberry also said that the festival has vacant spaces for more community and market stalls that wish to join the event and more volunteers are welcome too.

The event will run from 10am to 2pm at the Taylors Creek Linear Park on Chichester Drive in Taylors Lakes.
