Springbrook Community Notices

 

Springbrook BioBlitz is finishing up today at Koonjewarre.  Pop up to the base camp and check out the information stalls and activities even if you're not involved in the surveys.

The weather looks a little unpredictable over the next few days. Make sure you have the numbers for trees on the road and the link to the Mudgeeraba creek heights as this heat is likey to trigger a big storm soon.

Don't forget we have live Christmas trees here on the mountain specifically grown by a farmer for this purpose! They are $10 each and the proceeds go to the school. Call 0427146867 to order yours.

Thinking about Christmas? Want to buy local? We have lots of gift ideas right here on the mountain. Check out our cafes and road side stalls for lots of local products such as Youngs Rasberry Vinegar, Greenwood Farms Chutneys and Jams, Springbrook Honey, local macadamia nuts, locally grown kiwi fruit jam, teas, herbal teas, hand made candles, clothes, books, accessories, local art, plants, cards, kids toys, jewellery, fourty flavors of fudge, gemstones (The Gem Shop is an Aladdin's cave of shiny things). You could also ask for coffee n cake vouchers and accommodation vouchers from our local businesses.  Bet they would be happy to oblige. Make up a hamper of local produce. It's easy to do!

Letterbox Christmas decorating is getting underway. Heard the kiwi flag mum borrowed a power saw the other day. Can't wait to see what shes making this time!

As we move into the school holidays, the influx of visitors to the mountain all day every day means we need to slow down a bit and keep an eye out for people who dont know our roads as well as we do. They often dont have phone signal and stop in the middle of what looks like a quiet country road to figure out where they are but in reality is our main road... Weve said it before, please slow down. The whole mountain is actually a 60km per hour zone.

We are looking for a Santa Suit for a Christmas party next weekend. If you have one, or know where we might be able to borrow one from, can you email the secretary on secretary@smca.org.au 

Get involved. Have fun. Stay safe.
