We have a few families in our Sally Creek community who do not have wifi accounts.
A hard copy of the newsletter and calendar is produced and hung on the bulletin board in the
rec centre for pick up.
Each one is labeled with the name of the recipient.
Someone has been removing these copies before the intended recipient has collected it.
The printed calendar of the current month has also been removed from the bulletin board.
Unless you are one of the named recipients please do not remove these copies!
