Congratulations Cabonne Council: We are excited to share that Cabonne has been named the Winner of the Special Project Initiative Award (Population Under 50,000) at the 2025 Local Government Awards! This prestigious award is to rec­ognise the delivery of the Unsupervised Swimming Pools project – which has pro­vided community members with more flex­ible and increased access to the seven pools across Cabonne. Congratulations to the dedicated team at Cabonne Council, community partners, and all the local swim­mers who helped bring this project to life.

History In The Club: A quick reminder that the History Society is hosting a free “His­tory in the Club” talk by Dr Stephen Gapps on the Frontier Wars at 6pm tonight (Thurs­day, 12 June) at the Services Club, Gaskill Street.
