What a catch – Anna and Tommy Jobson caught this Cod and released him under the bridge at Gooloogong!

Community Assistance Grants: Community groups in Cabonne are being urged to apply for Council grants to improve the “liveability” of their areas. Applications are open for Cabonne Council’s 2019-20 Community Assistance Program grants, which are designed to provide an ongoing or sustainable benefit to local communities. In order to be eligible for the Community Assistance Program, applicants must be a not-for-profit organisation in the Cabonne Local Government Area and be undertaking a project on non-commercial facilities within the Shire. Each project will be assessed on its merits and the relative benefit it will return to the community. Grants are provided on a 50:50 basis, but communities can provide their half of the funding through voluntary labour or in-kind contributions. Applications for CAP funding close at 5pm on Friday 30 August 2019. Application forms and further details can be obtained by contacting Cabonne Council’s Grants Officer Naomi Schroder on 6392 3200 or by visiting the Council’s website www.cabonne.nsw.gov.au

Save the Date: The Canowindra Tigers will celebrate the Centenary of the Club on the weekend of 7th and 8th May 2020. There will be a football game on Friday night, bowls on Saturday and a special celebration at the Canowindra Services Club on Saturday night.

Future Drought Fund Becomes Reality: Farmers in the Calare electorate stand to benefit from projects funded by the Coalition’s Future Drought Fund, which passed the Senate last week. Federal Member for Calare and Assistant Minister to the Deputy Prime Minister Andrew Gee said the Future Drought Fund will deliver $100 million in investment into drought preparedness and resilience projects every year, starting July 2020. “The $5 billion Future Drought Fund means $100 million every year will be invested in drought resilience and preparedness. This is on top of the $1.9 billion we’ve already invested in Farm Household Allowance, Rural Financial Counselling, mental health funding, low interest loans and more,” said Mr Gee.

Moorbel Markets Are On This Weekend: Head to Moorbel Hall this Saturday 3rd August from 8am – 12noon. There will be a great variety of stalls and also a BBQ and morning tea available for purchase. To book a stall contact Warwick on 6344 2025.
