New Year festivities at Moonta amid rain and dust
On January 6 at Moonta a New Year gathering drew crowds despite a cold wind and dust. The Oddfellows and Forresters led a procession of over 150 to the Primitive Chapel then to the mine site for sports including harness racing, foot races, and jumps. A large Rechabite and Hope bands parade followed with temperance banners, ending with speeches at the Bible Christian Chapel and evening events at Globe Motel. The day was deemed a success with strong community turnout.
