This podcast is supported by the Clare and Gilbert Valleys Council.

In this episode:

Council chat with CEO Dr Helen Macdonald

  • Future of the Saddleworth Institute
  • Rivertown Town Hall structural repairs
  • Naidoc celebrations for August
  • Annual Business Plan and Long Term Financial Plan amendments

A special Council meeting  is scheduled  on Wednesday July 5th to consider the verbal and written submissions and another special meeting will be held on July 12th for Council to adopt  the Annual Business Plan and Long Term Financial Plan.

Meet the Council Employee

How much do you know about your local council? How many employees are there? Who does what behind the scenes? Over the next few episodes we’ll be stepping beyond the Council foyer to meet those people that keep the Council cogs in motion. This month you meet Sara Zuromski, Finance officer and IT support.

Clare Valley Model Engineers

What is it about miniature trains that draws crowds from near and far? Whatever it is, kudos goes to The Clare Valley Model Engineers and their miniature trains, as  they’ve turned their venture into a major tourist attraction over the last 26 years.

The club was formed in 1998 and they started doing public rides the following year. Last year they recorded over 11 thousand rides – a record year and this year is set to be even bigger. Club President Dean Manderson  and long time volunteer David Lloyd reveal all about the club's history and why it's so successful. 

If you’re interested in being part of the Clare Valley Model Engineers, they have working bees on Wednesday and Saturday mornings.
