2016 Federal Election: More than 15.6 million Australians are ready to vote in the 2016 Federal election. Electoral Commissioner Tom Rogers said the electoral roll has increased by over 963,000 since the last federal election. Mr Rogers said the overall number of people estimated to be missing from the electoral roll has dropped this federal election. “The proportion of eligible Australians on the roll has risen from 92.4 per cent at the 2013 election to 95.0 per cent.”

Canowindra Pony Club Gymkhana A Great Success: The Canowindra Pony Club held their annual Gymkhana on Sunday 29th May. Despite the wet week leading up to the event, the sun came out and a great day was had by all. The raffle winners were: Ist prize, a trailer load of firewood doanted by Mel and Nick Pagett was won by B Bowd. Second prize, a horse first aid kit donated by Pepper Tree Farm Equine Clinic was won by F Thomas. Third prize, chaff donated by Canowindra Produce and lucerne hay donated by Tom and Georgie Ward was won by M Clearey.

Thanks Tommy! Canowindra Preschool kids arrived at the Deli Lama on Tuesday morning to give Tommy Jeffs a surprise gift. Tommy, who kindly gave his time to cater at the Great Gatsby Gala Ball in aid of the Canowindra Preschool, happily accepted a painting that the Preschool children had created for him. “The painting is gorgeous! I am totally overwhelmed. I don’t expect anything in return but a big thank you from the teachers and students from the pre-school makes it all very worthwhile” said a very grateful Tommy.
