Top Ten Questionswith Ashlee Smith18th DecemberNorth Gardens Reserve (Lake Wendouree)We are very pleased to report that the Carols have once again been successful in receiving funding from the BallaratCity Council. This is a great assistance in providing the infrastructure for the Carols which cost well over $20,000 eachyear to run (predominately funded through Council Grants and sponsorship). Without the help of all the volunteers,the Eureka Carols would cost well over $250,000.
