Candlelight vigil next month Chantel Crump
As the nation, more so the family and friends of Chantel Crump continue to grapple with her death, a candlelight vigil is set to take place next month in her honor.
The vigil is scheduled for Thursday April 17 at 5pm and will begin at the Keithly Sheppard Recreation Park formerly King George V Grounds.
The exact meeting point will be by the bus stop at King Obstinate Drive.
Patrons will walk through the village where the nine-year-old lived before converging at the Keithly Sheppard Recreation Park.
The exact route will start from King Obstinate Drive onto #1 George Street, right onto Donovans road, right onto Perry Bay main road, right into Keithly Sheppard Recreational Park.
A concert will follow where tributes can be made.
