Woofs, Wheels & Wellbeing
Progress would like to thank Dungog Shire Council for their prompt response and resolution of the relocation of the Clarence Town Dog Leash Free Area which was conflicting with the children’s playground and outdoor gym on the Village Green.
The Leash Free Area is now located on the Wharf Reserve near Fotheringay Rd. Council signage is in place. If you are exercising your dog on the Village Green please ensure it is on a leash. The Association has funded the new footpaths at the Rotunda, picnic shelters and into Wharf Reserve. A pad has been laid for a shelter and seating in the new leash free area, We expect installation of the shelter in the near future.
At our last meeting Brad Elloy, the Community First Responders Co-ordinator sought support for an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) to be installed in the IGA under the Good Sam programme. We would like to thank Barry Jackson for a very generous donation to this initiative. If you are interested in the Good Sam programme, emergency response to heart attack victims, please contact Brad on 0417 651 577.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to participate in the Sentinel survey. Congratulations to Leanne Welsh, who was randomly drawn as the winner of the $100 voucher! Watch this space as we introduce some exciting changes to the Sentinel, both in print and online.
Also look for a new bike rack outside the IGA to be installed shortly – a boon to bike security and pedestrian safety.
John Moyes, President CTPA
