***UPDATE*** Capsules will be opened at the fete on the 13th November at approximately 10:30am (during our official opening ceremony). The contents of the capsules will then be placed on display. You will be able to register your information for any of your items contained within the capsules and will receive an email or text message at a later date for the collection of item/s. No items will be available for collection before or at the fete. The capsules are still sealed shut and will only be opened at the fete, not before.

Thanks to the father and son team -Peter and Kevin, the 1988 Bicentennial capsules have been located!! Thanks too to Carol (Kevin’s mum) for her location knowledge. We look forward to opening them at the Fete Opening Ceremony.
