Update - 10 November 2010

BAG NEWS ….

A quick reminder that our BAG General Meeting is on tonight - 7.00 pm at the BAG Cottage, Ann Street, Mitchell. All welcome!


Maranoa Regional Council’s Community Plan & Local Plan – we have been advised that there has been a hold up with the release of the Maranoa Community Plan by a couple of weeks. Hence, the Mitchell Community Presentation will not be able to proceed tonight as previously advertised.


Christmas in the Park – Monday 6 December 2010. This is organised by a joint effort from Booringa Action Group and the Rotary Club of Mitchell. We are looking for members to assist with some of the work on the night – please contact me if you can help!


Photocopying – did you know Booringa Action Group provides a photocopying service to the community? We can do up to 10 pages FREE. Very competitive rates, with discounts for members!, are available for all you copying needs.


2011 Booringa Business Calendars – a long standing and successful tradition of Booringa Action Group is the Booringa Business Calendar. Next year’s calendars have been printed and will be distributed via Australia Post to all households in the Mitchell, Amby, Muckadilla, Mungallala and Morven areas before Christmas.


Booringa Action Group, with support from council and local businesses, will again be running a shop local campaign in the lead up to Christmas. The purpose of this campaign is to motivate residents, workers, community and sporting groups to spend money locally. This in turn will have following results:

• Local employment stability and / or employment generation
• Reduction in carbon footprints
• Reduced leakages from out of the Mitchell economy
• Increased economic multiplier effect
• Enhanced community spirit.

Look out for more information coming soon and thank you for your continued support of local businesses.


Until next time! :-)

Cheers,
Sharyn.
