Easter Saturday is a special day in Blackwood, a beautiful town in the Wombat State Forest, Victoria. The sound of carnival mayhem and axes ring out over the forest during this not-for-profit event. The Blackwood Progress Association hosts the day and funds raised support our 340-person bush community.
This event has a long tradition and has been operating in various forms for over 100 years, during which time many community projects have been funded from proceeds.
