Happy Day of the Dead to you all.
For those who don't know, here is some info.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_the_Dead
Next year this will fall on a Saturday, and to celebrate, I'm proposing a picnic for the children of Kempton and their families, on the lawns of St Mary's Community Cemetery Kempton. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100080146848719
Whilst nothing is locked in, I am hoping to help raise funds for the site, and hopefully get some sponsorships to help make this a fun event. (I'm looking at you Old Kempton Distillery/ Mood Food/ Huntington Tavern)
Bear in mind, I have just come up with this idea and have not yet approached the St Mary's custodians about this yet.
Any thoughts would be gratefully received.
Feel free to PM any suggestions.

The Day of the Dead (Spanish: el Día de Mu***os or el Día de los Mu***os)[2][3] is a holiday traditionally celebrated on November 1 and 2, though other days, such as October 31 or November 6, may be included depending on the locality.[4][5][6] It is widely observed in Mexico, where it largely deve...

Shall we make another trip from the Hauntington Tavern?
I know that I have said that I've retired, but some things are addictive.
For me, it is sharing information.
Thoughts?

ANZAC DAY 2023: We are OPEN & have a breakfast special available from 11am!!

I think it is time to pass the baton onto someone able to take on this tour.

I have some ideas as to how this could work, but I would appreciate some outside input.

I'm not asking for money, just someone passionate enough to do the tour proudly.

Thoughts?

SORELL RAILWAY CARRIAGE SHED RESTORATION - WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Contractors are currently undertaking works to repair and restore the Carriage Shed in Station Lane to ensure its long term structural integrity. The Railway Carriage Shed is permanently registered as a place of heritage significance to Tasmania and is listed on the Tasmanian Heritage Register.
The sheets of corrugated iron on the north wall are in a very poor state and can’t be re-used. Using new iron isn’t the preferred option as we want to retain as much heritage authenticity as possible. We are putting out the call in the hope there may be locals in our community who have old corrugated iron we could use to help us achieve this. If you think you can help us with this important heritage project, please get in touch! You can call our Project Engineer, Anthony Walters on 6269 0000 during business hours.
We thank you for your assistance!
