Mernda Community Fair 2016
The 4th annual Mernda Community Fair has finished, and the organizing team would like to thank everyone who played a part in bringing the community together on Sunday 6th March! We are volunteers who run the event in our spare time because we believe that Mernda needs something like this, something which makes Mernda feel like a home rather than just a place to live.
Please give your feedback at this link here, so we know what to change and improve for next year:
