Last day of the whole house garage sale at 5 Llyods Rd! 8am to 4pm. Bring the trailer. Grab a bargain. It's all got to go. The house has sold!
A new sign has been created for our community hall! Come to the short unveiling ceremony on Friday, August 28th at 9.45am and see the master peice that has been created by local artist Jan Rutherford. Cr Tozer will be our MC for the unveiling and then we will retire to the Lost Fawn Cafe for refreshments.
Augusts Community Cuppa will be at 10.30am at the Lost Fawn Cafe on Friday 28th, just after the sign ceremony at the hall. Come along and meet new friends and catch up with old ones while you enjoy coffee n cake. Regan will bake up all sorts of tasty treats. Bring the kids. Join in and meet people. Cr Tozer will be there too!
Nerang-Murwillumbah road upgrade ideas, suggestions and recommendations can be sent to your state representative, Ros Bates on mudgeeraba@parliament.qld.gov.au or direct to TMR via their web page. Send maps with the dangerous corners clearly marked, areas for overtaking bays and other road issues to them sooner rather than later so they can be considered before the final plan is unveiled.
Springbrook School is now collecting plastic bottle tops and toothbrushes to be recycled into new and exciting things. Collected them up (give them a bit of a rinse) and drop them off at the school gate on Friday mornings between 8.30am and 9am. It would be great if the cafes could set aside a bucket to collect them as well and help divert landfill back into a useful life!

Springbrook Research Observatory is opening again in the weekends, weather permitting, for us all to gaze in wonder at the stars in our gloriously dark sky. Call Andre on 0400 789 551 and check if he is operating that night and book in quickly if he is. It's a fantastic opportunity to see the night sky through an astronomers eyes!

*The Afternoon Amblers are trying out Velvert Downs Road for their walks at the moment. They meet at the Telstra Exchange on the corner of Springbrook and Velvet Downs road about 3.30pm to walk as far as they can (at their own pace) for half an hour before returning. Bring a brolly. It rains at 4pm on Thursdays. Just ask them!
*Please, please please, slow down in front of the school. Its starting to get quite dangerous outside the school during drop off and pick up times, and is concerning all those there at the time. It's most likely to be locals at that time of the day too. Please, slow down. Its a hard enough road to cross with out a bag, or am and a 5 year old in tow...
*Food Scrap Friday is a community composting initiative run by the school and its P&C. Just bring your bucket of vege food scraps to the gate between 8am and 8.30am and the gardening project kids will weigh it, empty it into their compost heap and rinse the bucket before returning it to you at the gate. A great way to be involved even if you dont have kids at the school.
*Have you seen the new environmental initiative that's being started by members of our mountain community? Sarah and Keiran have created Climb a Tree Foundation to help spread all sorts of environmental and sustainable ideas and projects around.
