The Lachlan Valley Caravan Club, formed in 2003 as the Forbes Country Club Caravanners, is well known locally for having plenty of fun on its monthly rallies. So far this year its rallies have led members to Tumbarumba, Oberon, Manilla, Kiacatoo (west of Condobolin for the club’s annual bush rally), Young and Victoria’s Gippsland region for the club’s annual three-week roving rally. The next event is a rally to Bourke from July 20-27, with members spending two nights at the Nyngan Riverside Caravan Park and four at Kidman’s Camp in North Bourke. For further
information and plenty of photos of the members letting their hair down or just having fun in the case of the follicly challenged, visit www.lachlanvalleycaravanclub.org.au.

The Forbes and District Lions Club will officially welcome its new President, Peter Bright, at its annual changeover dinner tomorrow night when members will meet at the Golf Club Hotel. This is his second time as President, hopefully with a less eventful start to the term than last time, about five years ago, when Peter had been diagnosed with prostrate cancer and was inducted by phone from his hospital bed. Peter replaces outgoing President
and club stalwart Robyn Seberry. The club will hold its next car boot sale on Saturday, August 15, in Lions Park at the
end of Lachlan St from 7.30am to 1.30pm. For more information, contact the incoming President, Peter Bright, on 0419 463 803 (peterabright@bigpond.com) or email lionsclubs@hotmail.com.au.

Don’t forget to enter our competition to win a double family pass to Taronga Western Plains Zoo. A family pass includes tickets for two adults and two children for entry to the zoo and, in this case, is valid for 12 months. For entry details, visit our website, www.forbesphoenix.com.au, or go to our Facebook page. Remember, you have to be in it to win it, and the zoo is such a great place for you to visit … and, of course, to take the kids.

If you are wanting to find out about some very local artists and listen to some original music, then tune into James Monte and his new program, called ML Uncharted on local community radio 2LVR (97.9FM). The show
airs every Wednesday from 9-11pm and highlights unsigned artists and original music from Forbes and elsewhere in the Central West. Contact James on 0400 054 381.

Don’t forget to send your soup recipe in to us this week to see if you can win a voucher from Mezzanine for $50.00.
