Bogan Gate CWA: The Orange Male Voice Choir will be performing at the Bogan Gate Hall on 3rd June at 1:30pm. Sales are going well with tickets available until 28th May at Betta in Forbes, Parkes Real Property, Bogan Gate Hotel, GS Insurance in Trundle and Condobolin Library. Come and spend an enjoyable Sunday afternoon, relaxing and listening to the fantastic voices of the choir with Barry Patterson as the conductor and Heijin Kim from Orange Regional Conservatorium as the accompanist.
