Family feel to public rally

Face-painting, music and a sausage sizzle to raise money for the Cabarita Surf Club will be all part of the action at the public rally at Cabarita Beach/Bogangar this Sunday from 11am.
Being promoted as a “family friendly event” the Rally has been organised by the Cabarita Beach/Bogangar Residents’ Association.
It will be held at the park next to the local surf club and the association is hoping it will give a voice to community concerns about plans by the Tweed Shire Council and NSW Crown Lands for a caravan park and new estate.
The new 230-site caravan park and 37-lot residential estate is being built on beachfront land near the Bogangar Primary Schools.
The rally will also help to publicise the release of an alternative Community Plan developed by Griffith University researcher, Dr Kerrie Foxwell-Norton, on behalf of the Residents’ Association. The Community Plan will be released the following evening at a Community Meeting at 7pm on Monday, October 10 at the Cabarita Beach Sports Club (bowls club).
