DELEDIO FUNDING ANNOUNCEMENT
We have been successful in securing $1 million through the Victorian Government's Regional Community Sports and Infrastructure Program for the pavilion upgrade project.
With the current clubrooms not fit for use, together with the local community, we've been advocating for funding for this project over many years.
A big shout out to the Deledio Reserve Pavilion Dunolly group for all their advocacy efforts and their support in preparing the funding applications.
Thanks also to the Council staff involved in compiling the funding applications.
We now await the outcome of a $2 million funding application through the Federal Government's Play Our Way Fund program.
Watch this space!
ENGAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
We are currently inviting community feedback on the following projects that support access for all in local sport:
- Draft Fair Access Policy
- This Girl Can
Feedback on both items closes at 3pm, Friday 26 July (please note extended date).
