End of Year Message

As the year comes to a close, the Committee would like to take the opportunity to thank every individual who helped out this year. Whether it's cooking a BBQ, attending camps or helping at working bees, every contribution is invaluable, and without it the Group would cease to exist. Thank you all for your time, energy hard work and ideas. As we look forward to 2013, there are a few things we need to consider. Our Hall still has a number of repairs and upgrades that need to happen. The Committee hopes to have our space up to standard by years end. This is a big undertaking, and we need both the man power and the funds to make this happen. It is our hope that we can all pull together and create a space for our children which is both safe and welcoming. This brings us to our second focus for 2013 - Fund raising. We need to generate as much funding as we can in the coming year. Not only will it assist with repairs to the Hall, but the time and effort put into
