KLM Dutch Orange Day 2012 was a wonderful day
The 8th edition of KLM Dutch Orange Day took place on 29 April 2012 at Queensbridge Square.
It started off with some serious media attention. Channel Nine's Emma Freedman really out the spotlight on the event by doing 6 live cross weather reports from the Square.
The day continued wih wonderful weeather and great atmosphere. The river cruises were popular and so was the beer garden and entertainment. In short it couldn't have been better.
Congratulations to our winner in the KLM ticket auction. Mr. Niko Spelbrink won the auction witj his generous bid of $2200.
