There is so much a connected community can do together. We are blessed we live in a place where we value all that "community" has to offer.
We can come together peacefully and enjoy the wonderful things that being part of a passionate community has to offer.
On a bright and warm Easter Saturday an estimated crowd of about 5000 people came together at the Wollongong Botanic Garden.
Now in its third year, the Easter Family Fun Day has quickly grown as a much loved community event for the Illawarra held in the most wonderful venue.
It just shows the community spirit which abounds in our region, something wear as a badge of pride.
Please, if you are travelling on the roads over the next couple of days, please stay safe and be patient.
On behalf of the team at the Illawarra Mercury, I wish you all a Happy Easter.
