Ganmain Children’s Expo: Red Nose Day Rural Style will take place on Friday 28th June in the Ganmain Hall and Plaza from 10am-2pm. This annual fundraising event showcases health professionals, emergency services, market stalls and a range of FREE child friendly entertainment.

The Expo offers a fantastic day out for families with children aged 0-5 years and supports a great cause at the same time, with funds for Sids and Kids raised through the sale of Red Nose Day merchandise and donations at Red Nose Day Rural Style.

There is FREE entry to the expo and lots of FREE children’s entertainment so it is well worth taking a drive to Ganmain to support this fundraiser organised by a small committee of mums. Highlights this year will include the Old Kentucky Animal Farm, jumping castle, Wagga Clown Club, Narrandera Fisheries, Platypus Pete, DA Dog, Coolamon Library storytime sessions, Lil Melodies Kindermusik sessions and more.

While the kids are entertained the Expo is a great venue to get some helpful advice as there will be various displays, information handouts and samples available. Confirmed attendees include Australian Breastfeeding Association, Riverina Kids Therapy, Dental Health, Childhood Health, Community Health and Primary Health Care nurses.

Local coffee house, The Ganmain Providore, will again be involved and are donating a percentage of sales to Red Nose Day Rural Style. The Ganmain Bakery and Riverina Cupcake Company are also opening their doors so there will be plenty of places to purchase a warm beverage and lunch in Ganmain on Red Nose Day.
