Physical Fitness Council Opens Spooner Sports Oval For Training

The Municipal Council agreed to make Spooner Sports Oval pavilion and sheds available to Forbes Physical Fitness Association members for training under specified conditions. A letter from the association secretary asked for use and provision of two bicycle poles and rings, to be supplied by the council. the association would reimburse later. The mayor supported assisting the project as a progressive move, with pavilion use possible for open and covered exercises but reserved for others on special occasions and subject to lighting and maintenance considerations.
