It was a big day at Caniaba (just out of Lismore City) on Sunday,
July 16, 2000, with the opening of Adam Gilchrist Park.
Special guest (no prizes for guessing) was Australian cricket hero
Adam Gilchrist. Photos: Adam at the crease (left), and delivering his fine
speech (right).
Beware the madding crowd? Adam faced-up to the multitudes as they attempted their moment
of glory - to bowl him out.
Later he participated in a short game which included two lucky boys
who were prize winners in a contest - one to open the batting with
him and another to open the bowling.
More of - beware the madding
crowd?
Signatures, signatures, and more signatures. And why not? They loved
him!

Possibly you are wondering why two of these photos were shot from
the rear, as most photos of identities are shot from the front?
It's just to give you a better perspective of the gala day.
