LOCAL KNOWLEDGE? CAN YOU HELP? CONTACT US

Share your families history. What experiences of music, dance, performance and events can you recall? Did anyone in your family play music? Do you have knowledge of any of our local halls? 

 

This project was designed to share stories about music within living memory (1955 - 1980) from the areas around Camperdown, Cobden, and Terang, in the Corangamite Shire.

What is being asked of local participants? 

  • What community music events have you been involved in?

  • What bands and performers (both locals and visitors ) have you heard?

  • What music did/do you listen to (live. records, radio and so forth)?

  • What kinds of music do you enjoy (Scottish/Irish, Rock'n'Roll, Classical, Country and Western, and so on)?

  • Do you have any artefacts from your experiences like photographs, ticket stubbs, programs, posters, and music instruments?

If you have information that can help please leave a message.

As research is compiled this site will be updated, and will become a lasting resource for Camperdown & District Historical Society, and the local community.
