FARMERS and gardeners alike have rejoiced in the rain that has been experienced across the district at long last, with a worrying dry spell finally being brought to an end.
WHILE we have heard strong views from Mayor Bob Stewart on the amalgamation being recommended for the Bombala Council, it seems the community is only now starting to talk about the issue.
THE Year 3/4/5/6 students of the Delegate Public School recently enjoyed an exciting excursion that was all about mingling learning with fun experiences.
IN a day they will remember forever, our Bombala District Under 8s ran onto Bruce Stadium in Canberra on Saturday to play before the big crowd that had gathered for the afternoon’s Rugby League.
THE community’s interest was certainly piqued last week when we mentioned that the author of the book “Searching for the Man from Snowy River” will be in Bombala on June 22, discussing his fascinating research.
IT has been quite a long journey, but the Bombala Cemetery Maintenance Committee was very pleased to affix plaques to its Early Settlers Memorial Wall last week.
HE has performed at St James’s Church on Piccadilly in London, in New York’s famous Carnegie Hall, and of course at the Sydney Opera House, but last weekend acclaimed violinist, Jonathon Glonek was to be heard playing in our very own Delegate School of Arts!
ALTHOUGH it may not be what you expect from a men’s health session, great laughter proved an important part of the ‘Health Matters for Men’ morning that was hosted by the Bombala Men’s Shed last Thursday.
IT WAS a vitally important meeting that will affect the future of the entire district, but there were only two local representatives there to voice our concerns over the possible amalgamation of the Bombala Council.
