This afternoon, after my presentation at the Sustainable Living Festival, I attended the 2008 Maroondah Festival to visit the many community groups that were on display. Fortunately the weather was slightly cooler than last year’s 40 degree heat and community groups were located at the forefront of the festival.

The Youth Stage was also well patronised with acts such as The Living End keeping crowds entertained. The community groups and the many volunteers and staff that contributed to the festival must be congratulated for their efforts.
