You might know we've been putting in some serious elbow grease trying to secure a grant from the Government to spruce up our beloved pool and cafe. Well, guess what?!  We DID IT! The grant is officially ours, and we're so thrilled because it means we can create a truly wonderful and improved community space for all of us to enjoy in 2025. It's been a journey, but knowing what a fantastic difference this will make for everyone makes all the hard work totally worth it!
