ECA have had two committee meetings so far this year, we are excited about the year ahead!
Our next scheduled General Meeting is May 8th 2024 Echunga Community Association warmly invites you to celebrate the OFFICIAL OPENING of the Echunga Community Park Picnic Shelter 11.30am Sunday 14th April 2024. Being recent recipients of a Stronger Communities Grant has enabled us to install a new two burner electric BBQ in the Picnic Shelter and we will be cooking a FREE BBQ LUNCH. Please bring a chair or picnic rug for this community event. We need help! ECA are holding a Working Bee at 9:30am prior to the official opening (on the same day 14/4) to plant the new native garden. This will be a well organised event that requires willing workers to dig holes, plant where specified and move mulch. Morning tea will be provided. We are hosting this as a double bill - working bee followed by celebrations - and we appreciate whatever time and commitment you can give. We are proud of the achievements in our park over the last 5 years and would love to celebrate with you. All welcome. TOUR DOWN UNDER In January 2024 the men’s and women’s Tour Down Under raced through our Main Street three times. A small but creative group of ECA members decorated the town for Santos Best Dressed Town competition. We managed to win not one, but two days of the event netting us $1000 towards our picnic shelter and community park projects. A fabulous outcome! We would like to thank Carol for her enthusiasm with organising this team of decorators and to everyone that contributed! Our other major undertaking for the first quarter of the year is to submit our budget request to the MBDCouncil for funding in 2024/25 towards toilets and car-parking at the Community Park and continue to work alongside the community and Council on the Main Street upgrade. If you think you’d like to be involved in projects such as this, please reach out via email for further information [email protected]
