Cobram C W A Sponsors Double Swing For Playground

Cobram branch of the C W A will sponsor a double swing for the proposed playground on the old bowling green site. The Cobram R S L sub-branch has yet to choose its unit, and Mr K Kensington will decide, likely an E1 slide. Donations continue with several small sums listed, and the playgrounds committee aims to close the appeal by month end. The Chamber of Commerce will discuss the plan at its annual meeting next week. A grant request to Cobram Shire Council is being prepared to assist with equipment and plans for submission to the Public Works Department.

No permits would grant transport for adults to visited points as all area children had been accommodated. A local committee should gather requirements and submit them to the board for potential permits or carriage on goods vehicles.
