MORE than 300 Nagambie locals and visitors turned up for the annual national day celebrations in the Nagambie Rowing Club complex.
GoNagambie and the small Nagambie Australia Day committee were behind the efforts to retain Australia Day celebrations in the wake of the Strathbogie Shire Council’s declaration that they would not support the local town’s celebrations on January 26.
