The Nicholson River Model Boat club will be visiting Eden this weekend April 31 and May 1. They are having a demonstration of radio controlled yachts. There will be about 11 boats sailing on Quarantine Bay on both days. Keen model boat sailors will demonstrate their skills in sailing these radio controlled boats on a course set off the beach at Quarantine Bay. 

Council’s Community Strategic Plan team was kept busy at the Nethercote Markets on Saturday, April 23 as visitors gave their views about the long-term future of the shire at a council listening post using sticky notes and answering a survey.

Team member Sophie Thomson said it was about looking at the big picture, rather than roads and potholes.

Hard copies of the survey are available at shire libraries. For the online survey and a full list of listening posts go to council’s Have Your Say page or call Bega Valley Shire Council on 6499 2222.
