NEWS ABOUT Grants
Several groups from Cherry Gardens were successful in receiving grants recently from the City of Onkaparinga. Community groups gathered at the annual Grants Presentation Ceremony, https://www.facebook.com/ErinThompsonForMayor presented sporting clubs, service groups, schools, churches and a range of community groups with grants for their initiatives.
The Memorial Hall was successful in 3 areas. We can now purchase new A frames that are heavy duty, lightweight but with a base that can be filled with water or sand for stability to publicise our events - watch out for them on the roadside soon!
We will also purchase 2 smaller commercial fridges to replace our existing aging large fridge. This way we can choose to run just one for smaller functions, making us more energy efficient and hopefully encourage more hiring’s by improving our amenities.
We also received a Minor Capital Works Grant to go towards a major upgrade of our storeroom facilities. They are poorly lit, cramped & no longer weatherproof and not adequate for our current needs. Increasing the size and widening the door will make the area more accessible and easier to clean.
Thank you to the City of Onkaparinga for making all this possible. The changes should happen quickly, and we hope you will consider using the Hall for your next event.
