The connection with the Ballandean
community and the Apple & Grape Harvest Festival started
back in the late 1950s when the Ballandean and Wyberba Local
Produce Association sponsored a Queen of their own in the
festival.
The Southern Belle Committee are proud to
present the 2010 Young Ambassador, Philippa Hill.
Philippa and her family have been in the
Ballandean area since 2004. "My parents are proud of
me taking this challenge on. I have taken this on not
only to challenge myself but I would like to give back to
this community and be more involved" Philippa said. |
