"Tenpin Inverell will have the bowling balls polished and shoes laced, ready for our eager youth to participate in a free game from 20 April to 24 April."
"We're also thrilled to have stand-up comedy producer Anthony Lamond on board for Youth Week to share his knowledge with our local budding comedians".
"Young people will have the chance to sign up for a free workshop with Anthony at Inverell Town Hall and learn more about the art of performing comedy".
Mr Lamond has decades of on stage experience and has worked with high profile Australian comedians such as Dave Hughes and Jimeoin.
The theme of 2021 Youth Week, 'Together more than ever', encourages young people to connect with others and take part in their community, following a year that has provided enormous challenges, particularly for young people.
