Beachfront turns 20 in style

Anglesea Beachfront’s 20th birthday will be one of the biggest parties this year, according to the caravan park’s manager Justin Morris.
“Enjoy some excellent local talent, food and drink without the worry of having to drive home,” Justin said.
“Cabins and sites are filling fast, so we urge people to book early so they can experience what is shaping up to be a fantastic weekend.”
After two decades in Anglesea, Justin said that the Morris family wanted to celebrate and say thank you with some of the “Surf Coast’s most popular performers”.
The free family fun day on 15 October will feature entertainment for all ages, he said.
Torquay-based children’s group Willow Star and Geelong magician Dazzling Dan the Magic Man will entertain the youngsters throughout the afternoon.
In the evening, Anglesea acoustic guitarist Tristan J Ross will perform songs from the 50s to now, followed by the classic rock of the Scream’n Eagles.
The day will include face painting, a mobile animal petting farm, sumo-suit wrestling, a mechanical bull, a giant inflatable twister, laser strike and “the amazing race game”.
Guests can enjoy a sausage or two, and local craft beer and wine on tap including the Rogue Wave Brewing Company’s new ales “Salt” and “Moby”.
“The support from the local Anglesea business community has been outstanding,” Justin said.
“We put the call out, and within the day we had most of the entertainment and catering sorted, which just shows how involved and helpful our local community is.”
“Accommodation bookings have been tremendous with many of our annuals and regulars coming to stay for the weekend.”
For more information and to book free call 1800 040 455, Justin said.
