Springbrook Community Notices

 

Pipers Permaculture have a tour of their property today, 2pm to 4pm, $20 including a afternoon tea. Lots of projects to see and discuss. Lots of permaculture practices to see in action. Interested in what can be achieved here on Springbrook using Permaculture ideas, structures, zoning and patterns? Book your place in the tour by calling Gill on 0412306029.

Wanting to support our volunteer fire fighters during this fire season? Bake some yummy treats that are easy to grab in one hand and bring them down to Apple Tree Park over the next few days. Bring them in a box or disposable plate and deliver them to the grazing table (Down hill side of the Park) for the fire fighters to grab when they are on a break. It's a great way of showing your support!

Have you checked out our new sign on the Springbrook Community Hall yet? Isn't it great? It was painted over the last month or so, by new resident, Jan Rutherford who had a ball coming up with a theme for it. Inspired by the bush, the birds and our hall mural itself,  she wasnt stuck for inspiration. The old sign was deteriorating and was going to be hard to restore. It will he hung inside the hall and will continue to play a role in our social and cultural history.

Lots of fun at the Community Cuppa last Friday at the Lost Fawn Cafe. Lots of locals meeting lots 9f locals and chatting up a storm with special guest, Cr Glenn Tozer. Nice to see you up here Glenn, thanks for being the MC for our hall sign unveiling too!

Our local emergency crews have had a lot of call outs recently so give them a heartfelt, corona safe, elbow bump next time you see one. There's been quite a few accidents on the roads (please, slow down) and they get to attend most of them. Thanks for getting out of bed, having your dinners interrupted and leaving your family's special times to help us out. Its appreciated.

Welcome back to our students at Springbrook School who had a wonderful time at Jacob's Well on their School Camp! Saw you all on facebook and it looks like you had a wonderful time. Back to the classroom and its books tomorrow  though!

Springbrook Voices is being delivered to a letterbox at the end of your driveway, this week.  So many articles, all local, all relevant. It's a 40 page bumper edition this time. Make sure you read it all! 

Fathers day is next weekend! Have you got plans to spend some time with your Dad? Maybe a card and locally sourced present? Maybe morning or afternoon tea at a mountain cafe? Maybe just breakfast and cuddles in bed! No matter what you do, enjoy time with your family! 


*Theres lots of road side stalls popping up over the place at the moment. A lovely way to spend the weekend mornings is to drive around with some cash visiting the stall to see what local goodies are on offer. From Echo Valley at the beginning of Lyrebird Ridge Road to Greenwood Farm right up at Goomalarah,  there is often six other stalls open as well. See if you can find them all and enjoy our local goodies.

*Have you seen Cane Toads on the mountain this year??? WaterGum ate selling traps and bait to catch these menaces and both are available from WaterGums offices at Parklands Country Paradise in Nerang. Check their website for lots of information about cane toads and what you can do about them!

*Check out the social media accounts for our local business and groups. Theres a great buy, sell and swap one in facebook, great stuff coming from the explorespringbrook instagram account and lots of our cafes and shops operate accounts letting us know what is happening in their world. Stay in the loop and like these accounts and support our local business! 

Have a good week!

💚Springbrook
