The Grenfell community celebrated the festive season with an evening of carols hosted by the Combined Churches Association of Grenfell on Sunday, December 15.
Hundreds of people made their way down to Taylor Park for the return of the annual Carols in the Park.
Combined Churches Association of Grenfell's Rob Newton said the evening went really well, with a great turnout, with guests coming from around town and further away from Cowra, Young and Monteagle.
Guests were able to celebrate the festive season with a wide range of carols, with several performed by students from St Joseph's Primary School and students from Grenfell Public School.
For those who got hungry while caroling the evening away, members of St Joseph's Primary School operated the BBQ.
