This Day in History: 1979-02-18
The WAY ’79 Summer Sports Carnival was held in Toodyay. Each sports club held its own event and all joined together at a barbecue tea in the evening: bowls, basketball, cricket, tennis and the fire brigade. Banners designed and donated by the Toodyay Lions Club were presented to the winners of each event.
