Last night the Minister of Police, Corrective Services and Emergency Services Neil Roberts MP attended the first performance of "Toowoomba Back on Track" presented by Tania Kernaghan. After a brief scare with rain all 200 + performers were able to perform their tribute to the men and woman in the Toowoomba Community who volunteer to protect property and save lives. A "Parade of Honor" took place within the performance which featured over 50 men and women in their emergency services uniforms. The moment they appeared on the arena the audience stood and applauded to show their appreciation. The applause lasted the for the entire song that Tania Kernaghan was singing at the time.
Toowoomba Back on Track will be performed in the Main Arena at the Toowoomba Show Grounds tonight and tomorrow night at 7:15pm.
