Welcome, I would like to tell you a little about the wonderful world of Town Criers, and especially about the wonderful world of The Macedon Ranges in Victoria, Australia.
My name is Mike Willett, and I am honoured to have been appointed as the Town Crier for the Shire of Macedon Ranges.
My duties as Town Crier are to represent this beautiful Shire in official functions, promote local events and make a lot of official noise!
I am President of The Public Criers of Victoria Guild and The Australasian Guild of Town Criers, both of which promote the art and history of Town Criers, and also organise many Town Crier events throughout the state of Victoria and also assist in organising other States competitions.
I hope you enjoy reading my story and a little of the history of Town Criers, and that you may find time to visit our magnificent Shire, full of history, beauty, intrigue and friendly people. |
