See Australian Idol runner-up Luke Dickens in Binalong this weekend. There's nothing like listening to country music by a fire with a good drink and something to eat, and all of that has been arranged. Money raised on the night will send local students to Schools Spectacular. There are lots of prizes up for grabs including half a lamb, a three-course lunch at Lerida Estate for two people and three nights' accommodation at Mollymook holiday house. The event kicks-off early so children can watch it before parents dance into the night.
