Harcourt Applefest to continue......

Eleven people turned up at the Harcourt Tavern for the committee meeting (there were also a few apologies). It was great to see some new faces and new ideas on making the Applefest a continuing event.


The next meeting is on Monday 22nd November, 7:30pm at the Harcourt Tavern.


There are still some activities that need assistance so I've included the full list below:



  • Applefest Parade - It would be great to get more of the local businesses to participate.
  • Apple Pie Baking Competition - John Brumby is the patron of this event and the CWA may take the running.
  • Apple Pie Eating Competition - Jodie Nunn is the reigning champion of this event. I wonder if we can find a man to compete. 
  • Permits for road use - Applications need to be submitted up to 3 months prior to the event
  • Insurances
  • Fund Raising & Sponsorship. Can't start too early on this. Some work has already been done on this by a retiring committee member.
  • Programmes & Leaflets. Any aspiring graphic artists and printers are welcome.
  • Advertising and PR - including TV, Radio, Press & Social Media
  • Harcourt Idol auditions and entries. Will this be broadcast live to the world?
  • Cocktail Party after the Art Show. 
  • Musical Acts for Saturday Night. 
  • Market Stalls
  • Food Stalls
  • Liquor License
  • Pet parade
  • The Famous Ferret Race - Someone to help Donna and learn the ropes will be great.
  • Amusement stalls
  • Power Supply
  • Temporary Fencing & Safety Barriers
