We are happy to include details of your non-profit group’s meeting dates and contact details in “Your Community Contact List”. The idea is that it serves as a ‘memory jogger’ – a follow up to reading your article and/or advertisement of the regular activity or meeting.
Just a note to thank you for the fabulous coverage you gave us in the September edition prior to the Benefit Concert for Sarah McGuiness on the 4th of October 2014. I know the article sparked a lot of interest and donations from the generous people in and around Dayboro.
So much for requesting from UnityWater that a firefighting water main be installed in the Dayboro Showgrounds (see November 2014 edition of the Dayboro Grapevine).
There have only been a small minor property offences since the last Grapevine edition including the theft of dog fencing wire at Armstrong Creek and graffiti offences at Dayboro and Ocean View.
If you have information in relation to these or any other offences please contact Dayboro Police Station 3425 1200 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
