Scotland Island's
community vehicle requires more volunteer drivers.
Volunteering needn't involve a lot of time and can fit
around your commitments. Even one day per fortnight
would be a big help.

Recreation Centre
Tuesday 17
September, 11 am - 12.30 pm
The Recreation Club
runs a discussion group, meeting on the third
Tuesday of each month, from 11 am to 12.30 pm
in the Recreation Centre. Everyone is welcome.
 Members
take it in turn to design a session. For the
August session Chris Baynes invited the group
to consider aged car in Australia today.
For the September
meeting, Sarah Polomka asks whether a cashless
society is such a great idea.
Suggested
reading:
- 'Going cashless
isn’t straightforward. Ask Sweden, or
Zimbabwe',by Chris Vasantkumar, The
Conversation, 29 September 2020.
The group is administered via a WhatsApp group,
which will be used to distribute further
information about this and future discussions.
If you would like to be added to the group, send
your mobile phone number to editor@scotlandisland.org.au.
Alternatively, contact Jane Rich ( janebalmain@hotmail.com)
for more information or to express your interest

Sunday 22
September, 10 am - 12 noon
Residents who
have just moved to the island (or are just
feeling a bit new!) are invited to a special
information day, to be held in the Community
Hall during the 22nd September island café.
We’d love to meet you and give you the
opportunity to get to know more residents.
If you are new to the island, we’re shouting
you coffee! Please register and get a coffee
voucher and put your coffee order in early
(around 10.30 am) as there is often a queue.
There will be information available on SIRA,
fire, emergency, water, public wharves,
community vehicle and bush care.
Some island businesses and service providers
will be on hand to tell you what they have
on offer. And we’ll give you a heads up
about various social and cultural groups.
