Surf Club Plans Refreshment Booth at Bunbury Beach

At a Bunbury Surf Club meeting in the Rose Hotel a refreshment booth with tea and soft drinks was proposed and tentatively approved after a deputation approached Mr. Taylor. The booth would be on the beach following council concerns about footpath placement. The project aims to open before the Xmas holidays. The town also discussed a proposed monument with Perth sculptor P Porcelli presenting designs priced around 1000 pounds, with a public meeting likely. Weed control and prickly pear issues were raised, and blocks were to be contacted to clear nuisances.
