Community Insurance: Are you a small non-profit community organisation in Canowindra? Arthur Falconer is currently looking into cheaper insurance options for the small non-profit organisations in town. Many groups are covered by their NSW or National Associations but other standalone groups do not have that luxury. If there are other small groups either without insurance or suffering from high insurance costs let Arthur know as he is looking into
whether the other groups may want to join and insure as a single group. Please email Arthur with any questions on arthur.f@bigpond.com

World’s Greatest Shave: Canowindra local Molly Grant will shave her head today at Canowindra Hotel to raise money for cancer research. Molly had to say goodbye to two close friends who died of cancer recently and this prompted her to take action. Once Molly turned 18 she decided the best thing to do was to raise money to help find a cure. “Canowindra is a small community but I see so many great people walk into the hotel every day who really care about
the town. I think I’ve set a realistic goal to raise $560 and I’ve been really touched by everyone’s support so far,” said Molly. To donate head to http://ow.ly/zLLZ30nWTr8
