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. The Choir celebrated its 90th anniversary in 2016, and have sung all over the world and around Australia. A delicious afternoon tea will be served afterwards. Other events hosted by the CWA included the Oxley Group Handicraft/Land Cookery Day on 6th March, and the Parkes, Forbes and Condobolin annual Bridge Day on 15th April for the 11th time.
