Finishing my afternoon roadside chatting with Aaron. I have known Aaron for well over a decade. I first met him when he was volunteering at the Coomera Valley Rural Fire Brigade.

There are over 5,800 community pharmacies distributed around Australia, with over 462 million individual patient visits annually.

First Up, Highland Reserve State School Parents & Citizens Assoc. (P&C) Topics discussed Father's Day Stall merchandise ordered. Colour Fun Run Organised. Playground equipment Inclusive Education discussion from parents. Tonight’s meeting, Oxenford Neighbourhood Watch Coomera Police District Crime Statistics

This morning, I joined our Indian Community Of Gold Coast with Sam O'Connor MP, John-Paul Langbroek, Rob Molhoek MP, Cr Brooke Patterson and Councillor Joe Wilkinson to celebrate 78 years of Indian independence. Thank you, ICGC 🙌 I spent most of the afternoon walking the pavement, updating residents about the future of Maudsland ANZAC Dawn Service. Thank you to the many residents up for a chat.

Coomera River Catchment Association Inc planted another 1000 plants at today’s Regatta Waters Tree Plant. Over the last seven years, the community has planted 60,000 trees! A big shout out to the crew from Ginger Indian Gourmet for helping and Naomi Fowler, Division 2, Gold Coast for always coming to the tree plants. Without all our volunteers helping, the tree plants would never happen. Thank-you all
