There
is plenty of activity in the town as we ready for 600 delegates to the CWA

Conference organiser, attended the last Executive meeting to thank the Chamber
for their generosity in providing $10 cash cards for each of the delegates. The
Chamber with the PCYC will also provide a shopping map and shuttle bus between
town and the Showground so delegates can take advantage of their time off to
explore.
