Today marks a very special occasion in our nation‘s history, Remembrance Day is the day we remember when the guns fell silent on the Western front in 1918.

Thank you to everyone who supported North Gold Coast RSL sub-branch sausage sizzle today at Bunnings Oxenford. Our master chef Ken (our local Sub Branch RSL president, plus he is a top bloke) was working overtime keeping up with the demand of cooked onions and snags. Due to COVID requirements, RSL Chaplain Don was master of the sauce bottles. He took great pleasure in decorating the snags with extra sauce. All funds raised help local veterans.

Cracker of a day. Another successful day for the New Farmers Market at Helensvale State High School. Well done to Nerise and Leanne for all the work they do in setting up these markets.

Scott from the Coffee Reserve Upper Coomera is a bit of a celebrity. His bubbly personality has put a smile on many faces over the last couple of years. He is a true gentleman. Today is the second last day for Scott at the Coffee Reserve. He recently sold his business to Tina (Lady in the photo) Scott has for one favour to ask, please keep supporting Coffee Reserve and the new owner Tina. Support local business.

Community Roadside Thursday at Upper Coomera chatting with residents. It is turning out to be a busy afternoon.
