The year has been a busy a one, with lots of new homes and more importantly lots more new friends joining our community.

The Village Social Committee have been very busy with regular monthly Trivia and Bingo nights. BBQs are always popular, and a 'soup luncheon' with 6 varieties of soup proved a very poplar winter event this month.

The exercise group work out every morning in the hall, and their enthusiasm is only exceeded by the chatter and laughs. They are certainly enjoying their exercise! Cards, darts and craft afternoons all manage to fit into the schedule as well.

For those who prefer to sit in the sun and read, the Village Library offers a wide range of reading material. So much in fact that the carpenters have been asked to erect more bookshelves to cater to our ever expanding supply of books.

Our bi-annual Information Day has come around again, and the Rural Fire Brigade will be visiting to talk on fire safety in the home, and the new bush fire safety arrangements for the Shire. Their attendance is much appreciated as it is always good to get the latest information directly form the source, and be able to have any questions answered.

Other local community based services will also be in attendance.

Our new Display Home from Manor Park Homes has already sold, although it was not quite finished with the painters still doing the final touches. The new owners are not moving in until the end of August, and have agreed to allow inspections until then, so still time for a quick look through if you are coming to visit.

Another display Home will be installed by the end of November. Not many vacant sites left now!
