Easter carnival planned

 

Umina Beach will host an Easter parade and carnival, presented by Peninsula Christian Life Centre on Easter Saturday, March 30.

The parade will start at 11.30am in West St, Umina.

Businesses are planning a "crazy market day" with in-store specials and other promotions.

Floats will be provided by local businesses, dance studios, vintage car owners, churches, the fire brigade and surf clubs.

Gosford Mayor Cr Robert Bell will also be in the parade.

A carnival will start at noon at the parkland entrance to East's Caravan Park, with stalls provided by local charities, churches, surf clubs and regular stall holders carrying arts and crafts.

There will also be sausage sizzles, cakes, clowns, fun games, face painting, amusement rides and pony rides.

The non-profit event aims "to bring the community and community groups together for a fun day, helping local businesses and supporting local charities, and profiling the family".
