The Warrandyte Community Association AGM will be held on Thursday 22 July at 7.30pm at the Warrandyte Community Centre The brief AGM will be followed by a Public Meeting on the future of the Warrandyte Community Centre and other issues members may wish to raise. The future of the Community Centre has been the subject of much debate over the last few years and recently Manningham City Council has been involved in intense discussions with various interested parties. It has not been possible to consult all the residents who use the WCC and this is the chance for wider debate.

Ms Celia Haddock, Director of Community Services, Manningham City Council will address the meeting to bring us up to date. The WCA was originally formed after concern about the future of the Centre nine years ago. Fortunately, the Centre is not under threat but questions of how best to use the facility for the benefit of residents remain. We welcome Celia and look forward to hearing her views and yours.

Kind regards

Dick Davies

President

Monster Garage Sale – this Saturday (yes, already)

Have you told all your neighbours, friends and colleagues? If you have,
tell them again!

Just a message to remind everyone about our Garage Sale this Saturday 9am
-1pm. We need lots of goodies to sell and lots of people to buy things.

You can drop things off at the church Wednesday and Thursday afternoon from
1pm until 8pm and all day Friday until 8pm.

If you have any bulky items you need picked up from your place please give
Ken a call to arrange pickup on Thursday or Friday (0407 839 718).

Tell your family, friends and neighbours they can donate goods, and they
can come, browse, eat, drink and buy.

It will be a great morning. See you there. Remember – one person’s junk
is another person’s treasure. So go and do a last sweep of your place and
find all those things you have kept ‘in case…’ – and that was 10 years
ago! And if you change your mind you can always – buy it back!

In preparation for the event I have subscribed to the Community Exchange System.  Everybody active on the day will be able to register their contribution.  I have chosen the ‘monetary unit’ to be the North Warrandyte Rake, where 15 minutes of labour earns 1 Rake.  Other service exchange rates can be ‘negotiated’ around this base rate.

It is possible to exchange your hard earned Rakes with other schemes!
