A big Happy 90th Birthday to Inglewood’s own living legend – Val Johns! 🎉

Still as active and involved as ever, Val’s done so much for the Inglewood community over the years – and it was only fitting that her milestone birthday drew a crowd of over 160 friends, family, and fans! 🌟

“It was an honour to cater for Val’s milestone birthday with an amazing turn out of over 160 guests…” reported Café 3517. “Thanks to the Johns family who trusted us with such an important eve.” 🥳

📷: This photo was taken by Café 3517 at Val's 89th birthday last year.

The Grainlander was spotted passing through Inglewood this morning! 🚆

Just as we opened our doors this morning for the Unearthed event, the Overland train went through. Pity the train doesn't stop in Inglewood, but highlights some possibilities we can tap into to bring visitors to town.
