The stylised painting of the Majors Creek Recreation Ground was painted by Carolyn Brookes for the 2001 festival which was the first waste wise festival.
With much help from the NSW government and full support from festival patrons and stall holders, this was a very successful event with no waste leaving the site.
The small amount of waste that could not be recycled or composted was ground up and used in a concrete slab that was placed near the corner of the hall.

The inaugural MUSIC AT THE CREEK FESTIVAL was held on 12th, 13th and 14th November 1993. The organising committee that year was Peter Gillespie, Carol Ogilvie, Harry Cassilles, Jim Clapin, Brian & Stephanie Kille, Gordon & Michelle Pritchard and Peter Burn, who were helped by the Braidwood Community Centre crew of Alison Sexton Green, Jean Gabb, Morna Winter Irving, Gerard Gillespie, Murray Harrex and Jenny Tozer. Many of these people are still actively involved in the running of the festival, which has given the festival stability over the years and allowed it to develop into one of the must visit festivals on the music festival calendar. |
At the 2009 Braidwood Australia Day Celebrations
