21/07/2024

Hello everyone.Sat was the last day of trading for Umphertson Kiosk and Souvenirs. However the last week I have been very sick and unfortunately missed my last day.I would like to thank everyone who has supported me and my shop for the last 10 years. To everyone who has been associated with my business a big thankyou . It has been a huge journey over the 10 years and I have enjoyed every minute. I have been in tourism for over 25 years and it has been a very rewarding industry to be associated with. But it is now time to move on with a new chapter in my life which I am looking forward to.There are so many people I’m going to miss. To all the car clubs, probus groups, coaches, variety clubs, and school groups that I have catered for and been associated with over 10 years, I wish you all the very best to you for the future. To everyone who has helped me in the shop over the busy times thankyou.We will be having a garage sale in the next week with shop fittings and fixtures plus more.The shop is still in my care until Oct 19th when keys will be handed over to council for their take-over. Thanks again everyone. Take care.

Residents and visitors are advised Umpherston Sinkhole/Balumbul will be closed on Wednesday 19 June and Thursday 20 June to enable maintenance works to be undertaken safely.

Works will involve the use of a crane to lower skip bins into the sinkhole while council staff remove debris and prune the ivy. Hydrangeas and other plants will be pruned to encourage new growth and prepare for future planting.

The car park and surrounding areas will be accessible but there will be no access into the sinkhole during this time.

We apologise for any inconvenience.
