Central Goldfields Shire Flynn Ward Councillor and Energy Breakthrough's Governance Group Committee member Cr Liesbeth Long, said excitement was building for this year's Energy Breakthrough.
"Whilst we know our local school communities are busy preparing and excited for the event we really want to encourage our local population to get involved as well.
"Even if you don't have children or grandchildren involved – come along and share in the excitement.
"There's lots of fun to be had for residents of all ages – come down to soak up the racing atmosphere as 92 schools battle it out to win the coveted blue medal, grab something to eat from the variety of food trucks, enjoy the live music and maybe even take a ride on a pedal boat on Lake Victoria!"
