A quick update: We’re about to hit go on our application for the Tiny Towns Grant 👏

We’re applying for a concept design for bike skills trails including dirt jumps at Lord Nelson Park. Cost is just over $12,000.

We had to contribute 20% of the cost of the project to be eligible for this grant and we’ve secured some bike track funds from SCAN (St Arnaud Community Action Network), along with a couple of donations from community members.

If we are successful, we will then have a plan that we can work towards fundraising for construction.

This will take time. It’s been two years since we first started applying for grants and we haven’t been successful yet, but hopefully this time we are on the right track 🤞🙏

Funding will be announced around June.
