Everything Elmhurst This is the official page for the Elmhurst Development Group. Elmhurst is located in the Pyrenees Ranges, Victoria, Australia.

Please contact Jane Baker on 0473 846 632 if you require updates to this page. The Elmhurst and District Community Development Group (EDCDG) was established in June 2001 after a public meeting identified the need for more collaboration and a strategic approach to the way in which Elmhurst and District develops over the coming years. The group is now called Elmhurst Development Group (EDG), which i

s the official name for the incorporated identity. This has lead to the development of a number of Community Action Plans. The plans detail the goals and strategies agreed by the community for the community. Ararat Rural City Council works closely with development groups across the small townships of the municipality as one method of community engagement and consultation. THE PURPOSES OF EDG

Smoke Detectors Work
Want to get your long-battery-life smoke detector installed for free?

ALSO - if you have existing smoke detectors, it is time to check and replace batteries.

BTW note from editor - I met up with some friends on the weekend, and they showed me a photo of their combustion wood heater that had a chimney fire, two days ago. The whole chimney pipe was glowing red hot at 2:30am. Fortunately, the smoke detector went off and woke them up; otherwise the alternative scenario could have been terrible.

Last Saturday night the Elmhurst Fire Brigade celebrated 121 years of community service.

Over 700 years of combined service was recognised. A delicious meal was prepared for the 53 attendees, prior to medal presentations. Fifteen members were awarded the distinguished National Medal, with others presented with service awards.

The real highlight of the night was Brigade Life Memberships being bestowed upon Doug Keith and David Price.

A memorable night enjoyed by everyone.
