Springbrook Community Notices

 



*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!

*Found a hurt or injured animal on the road? Call Wildcare on 55272444 and they will get onto a carer on the mountain for you. To report dead wildlife for our statistics, please text 0418454732 with the location/address, day, date and type of animal. Don't forget to check to check the pouch if it's a female marsupial.

*Dont forget to make Springbrook Voices your first stop when you need a tradie on the mountain. Theres lots of great people who are very good at what they do, right here on our doorstep. Call the first and shop local when you can!

*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.

So, so good to see some waterfall recharging rain!! A good reminder to make sure you are storm ready and have fresh batteries in your torches! Storms and tons of rain often lead to loss of power up here so make sure you are on the disaster managements text list and that you "like" them on facebook to get up to date, real time local info about any kind of disaster we maybe experiancing.


If you see any trees down across the roads, please call the TMR emergency line 131940 for Springbrook Road and the City of Gold Coast emergency line 1800637000 for the smaller Roads. They will send someone up fairly quickly to deal with it. Technically,  our local guys cant deal with trees on the road until directed to by decorative epaulette wearing persons!

Check out the Notice board at the Springbrook Emporium (the tip) for local services and tradies. A great place to find out what's on, what's happening and who's selling what. Put your own notice up. It's a fantastic community resource!

Stay safe. Get out and about. Enjoy your community!
