Bourke Indigenous festival underway
Posted
A three-day celebration of Aboriginal culture begins in Bourke today.
The annual Yaamma Festival begins with a family and grandparents morning at Bourke High and primary schools, and a golf event this afternoon.
Tomorrow a singing talent quest and dance competition will be held, as well as a mixed touch football tournament.
Organisers say the event is for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people and they are urging the whole community to participate.
