UPPER PLENTY HALL NEWS (THE SHACK) September 2011

The builders have started levelling the outdoor area to make it ready for the concrete slab. The slab will be edged with personalised engraved pavers which you can order through the Hayley (5783-1141) or Alison (5783-1950). You can order one for your family or one for each member at a cost of $5 each. Light fittings have been ordered, as well as new floor coverings for the kitchen & storeroom. The storage room fit-out with shelving, secure storage cupboards and adjustable shelving has also been finalised. We are expecting all works to be completed by late October.

A Working Bee with the Upper Plenty Primary School students will be held on the last day of the school term, Friday 23rd September, to complete the 2011 planting program around the creek area. We are also hopeful that the pathways through the creek area will be installed within the next few months.

We are going to be holding an Upper Plenty Community Day on Sunday 20th November, 11am – 4pm. If you are a local business, a resident who runs a business, artist, craftsperson, or a community group who would like to display / showcase on the day please contact Rose on 5783-1661 or email shack [at] upperplenty.com Local author, Lou Drofenik, will be reading from her most recent novel and signing copies for purchasers. There will be children’s entertainment; plant giveaways, live music, and a free sausage sizzle at lunch time. It should be a great day so put it on your calendar now before Christmas events take over.

The next Community Night will be held on Friday 4th November, starting at 6pm. There will be pizzas at 6pm followed by an Old-Time Movie Night at 7pm. Admission is free to Upper Plenty residents. If you have been to one of our Old-Time Movie Nights previously, you will know that our projectionist, Alan Voight, always puts on a great selection of treats.
