How did Drouin get its name? Nobody could explain it to. It took Michael to unearth the truth. Michael said:
Drouin got it’s name from a Frenchman named Drouin who invented a new way to extract gold.
Which is true. Drouin is best known for dairy farming (and a couple of handy footballers), but over a hundred years ago, did you know that goldf was mine at the Tarago River directly north of the township.
Way to go, Michael!
