Mayoral Notes

This weekend Forbes is hosting the NSW Fire and Rescue Regional Championships at Stephan Field. There will be 25 teams from across the state competing in a range of events based on the skills that firefighters use in emergency situations. It is great for Forbes to be hosting these championships,
so grab a chair and head down to Stephan Field to see how fun and fit our
firies are.

Speaking of visitors to town, next week Forbes will welcome about 350 members of the CMCA Solos Network as part of their annual rally. The group will be staying at the Forbes Showground and are looking forward to introducing themselves to locals and will be participating in a range of activities while in town.

One of the main reasons they have chosen to come to Forbes is because of how friendly our community is and the great shopping we have. The Free Cuppa for the Driver Scheme has started back up again and will be running until May 31. Forbes is one of 18 local councils to be a part of the project with 62
businesses ready to serve drivers with a free cup of tea or coffee. The businesses taking part in town are the Bakehouse, Lakeside Takeaway, Superbee Café and Metro Ben Hall Roadhouse.

To find out the other cafes part of the project, download the smartphone app Free Cuppa.

Have a great week, stay safe and God bless.

Mayor, Cr Phyllis Miller OAM
