Make it a day to remember

A GROUP of singers and dancers are getting excited about the coming International Women’s Day event, Local Women Rock.
The performers all hail from the Noosa district including Trish Couper, a music teacher from Peregian and her daughter Carly and cellist Laura.
The audience is asked to wear purple and green, in support of International Women’s Day.
The theme for this year’s International Women’s Day is ‘Making it Happen’.
Event organiser Cherry Bright said Local Women Rock is making it happen with an all women line-up to keep the audience enthralled.
Well-known singing group, the Doo Wop Dolls, Michelle Brown and her trio the Kitty Kats, plus a belly dancing group, a tap/clog dancing group, singers of all ages and a light dancer will all take to the stage.
“The wonderful Emma Freeman, a local treasure, will speak about the early days and women’s suffrage,” Cherry said.
“Come along for a wonderful night of fun. Men are welcome to this great show, too.”
The Local Women Rock concert will be held on Saturday 7 March, from 6.30pm, at the House with no Steps, Charles Duke Drive, Doonan.
The event is BYO, so grab a picnic, candle and portable chair. Tickets are $25 per person and can be bought online. Phone 0410 573 629 for more information on where to purchase tickets.
