Forbes Phoenix

Mayoral Notes

I am deeply moved by the outpouring of thoughts and prayers during my recent ill­ness. Your support has been a beacon of hope and strength for me and my family during this challenging time.

I am grateful for each and every one of you who took the time to send well wishes, offer prayers, and provide comfort. Your kindness and compassion have made a profound impact on my recovery.

Thank you for standing by me and show­ing the true spirit of our wonderful commu­nity. Together, we have demonstrated that Forbes is not just a place, but a family that cares deeply for one another. Thank you.

I will be taking it slowly while I fully re­cover but am already feeling more myself since being back in Amazing Forbes.

Rug up and come along for a family movie night on Friday night at Nelson Park.

Join the Forbes Shire Council team from 4.30pm for some pre movie fun – includ­ing face painting, giant garden games and food vendors. The Australian movie RUNT will be featured from 5.30pm.

Everyone is asked to BYO chairs and blankets. You can find more details on the Forbes Youth Action Team facebook page or Council’s website.

Forbes businesses – NSW Reconstruc­tion Authority is hosting a business forum to help Central West business owners who have experienced or are at risk of over-floor flooding. Reconstruction’s Flood-resilience experts will present practical ways busi­ness owners can restore their business premises quickly after a flood.

The presentation will include practical tips and advice about building materials which will help you open your doors and start trading as soon as possible after a flood. This business event will be held at Club Forbes, 41-45 Templar Street, from 6- 8pm on Tuesday 3 June.

The colder weather has made me think of winter, fire buckets and heart food, which means Frost and Fire must be getting close. Tickets on sale now. We have sold a lot of tickets to people away so we don’t want the locals to miss out. This year’s live music is the Wolfe Brothers, Ripley Alexan­der, the Baker Boys Band, Easy Goin’ and Foxxy Cleopatra. It’s on Saturday 21 June starting at 4pm.

God Bless,
Phyllis Miller OAM
