The Casey Scoop - Sep 11th - 25th

Your guide to stuff happening in Casey

Hi there Scoopers. I hope you’re keeping warm. I have changed the schedule of The Casey Scoop to fortnightly during the slower winter months, as there is a lot less outdoor events on the schedule. The upside is that there will be one less item in your email inbox. Woo hoo.

RAY O’LEARY - LAUGHTER? I HARDLY KNOW HER! Coming this October at Bunjil Place.

And Ray (who sold out tours to Melbourne, Edinburgh, and more) will get around to it, but first, he has to do this comedy show.
