OBJECTIVES

The primary purpose of the Community Hall will be to house:

    • community events such as the Annual Bushfires Healing Ceremony
    • community meetings such as the local Heads Up For Fire group
    • classes, clubs, local social events and community markets
    • a hot desk for a part-time community coordinator and social services providers.
Proceeds from the hiring of the venue and the running of a market day café will be used to:
    • meet the annual operating costs of the Association,
    • fund further community events, and
    • meet the ongoing costs of the Hall and to provide casual employment on market days.
