Snippets…

5 April, 2017 By Canowindra Phoenix Editor


Congratulations: To Bobby Ellis and Lauren Theobald on their engagement! Billy and Lauren have just moved to Canowindra from England and plan on settling down here. Bobby proposed in Melbourne last Friday, we wish you all the best for the future!

Royal Far West: Have raised $600,000 from their bike ride that travelled through Canowindra as part of their 420km journey to raise money for Country Kids Education.

Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea: Is approaching with the official date being Thursday 25th May. Get along and support local organisations raising money for this event.

Tallulah’s Living Colour Cabaret: Is on the 21st April 7.30pm at the Canowindra Services Club to raise money for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

Percy the Pig: Went the whole hog and made it to Orange from Boorowa with the ‘fit farmers’ pushing it all the way. The event was to raise money for Country Education Foundation. Congratulations on the team for starting a great event!

New Balloon Announced: The Hummingbird Balloon will travel all of the way from Albuquerque to Canowindra for the International Balloon Challenge.

Canowindra Bowling Club: Wednesday badge draw is $200 and Friday badge draw is $200. Bingo this Thursday 11am.

We have moved!: You can now find the Phoenix at 84 Gaskill Street, opposite Montrose House.

New Playground: Canowindra Public School officially opened their new playground last week with the P&C raising $28 000 for the new equipment. The specific play equipment was chosen to suit a range of ages as well as being safe and fun for the students. The students already love it!

Hemp as a renewable resource: Commercial production of hemp is permitted under legislation in Victoria, Tasmania, Queensland, ACT and Western Australia. Many are using it as a building material as it is flame, water and pest resistant. It is also naturally non-toxic, an incredible insulation material, strong, lightweight, breathable and energy efficient. Hemp is not the same strand of plant as marijuana.

Upgrade Escort Way: The notorious black spot near Eugowra has received a $460 000 upgrade to improve safety. The work involved includes a barrier, shoulder sealing and enlarging the distance between the edge of the roadway and dangerous obstacles.
