Part of the festive decorations includes the large wooden present boxes to be installed in both the CBD and small towns that the Tallygaroopna Men’s Shed have refreshed with new bows.
Next week, decorations will be placed in Murchison, Tatura and Mooroopna.
The full suite of Council Christmas decorations will be installed by the first week of December.
The decommissioning of Christmas decorations will occur from 2 January 2019.
