Members Statement: Craigieburn Festival

Ms SPENCE (Yuroke) — I rise to congratulate all involved in this year’s Craigieburn Festival, an annual event held in the Yuroke electorate and attended by many thousands of locals. I would like to particularly mention the Country Fire Authority (CFA) torchlight parade, which is a highlight of the weekend, with local residents lining the route and watching and thanking our emergency services as they march. The new route through the middle of Craigieburn Central was a great success. Congratulations to Craigieburn CFA secretary Dianne English, first lieutenant Chris Gray and all involved.
