| Australia's oldest Italian
building and first pasta factory is 150
years young next year! In 2009 much
of our community and special guests will
gather in friendship for a wonderful year
of celebration and commemorative projects
at Hepburn Springs. |
|
The Macaroni Factory's property will see some
new developments to assist in hosting some of
the events. This includes an outdoor performance
area, woodfired pizza oven, walkways and expanded
gardens. Further, a project will underpin
our special year to acknowledge our early settlers.
| |
Local businesses will also have the opportunity
to be involved in hosting some events and providing
hospitality for our guests. We have also sought
the help and advice of community and business
members as we progress and broaden plans.
Alongside sponsor registration, historic and
background information, this section of our
website is to advise media and our patrons and
acknowledge sponsors. We welcome your advice
and participation towards our year. Please contact
us via the email link below or contact numbers
on the media release.
