Shameless: plug for one of my school friends. Bobbie McGees has moved into their new Orange store at 176 Summer Street. Just 6 shops up from the old one, so next time you're in Orange call in and have a look.

Above: last year's Balloon Glow. Photo courtesy of Glenn Mickle, Cabonne Council. PAY NOW AND WALK RIGHT IN LATER This year Canowindra residents can pre-purchase entry to Night Markets and Balloon Glow from the Newsagency: $5 per adult; $10 per family (2 adults + kids). This will save lining up at the gates. The Canowindra Challenge Committee have made a number of changes since last year based on feedback from completed surveys. Surveys will be available again this year from the gate, an information table and handed out on the night, and also from local shops during the following week. Your ideas and suggestions are valuable to improve the balloon events year to year, so make sure you grab a questionnaire and fill it our honestly. Crowds are expected to increase from last year, so get to the Sports Ground early there will be a wide variety of stalls and plenty of action. This years fundraising recipients are the Read triplets, so bring a gold coin or two to toss into the bucket. Stay for the Python's rugby match immediately after the balloon glow and cheer them on to victory.

A few important developments have happened since the last article in the Phoenix: specialised chairs similar to the 'Snap Dragon' chairs that were being considered can possibly be sourced locally. This option would mean the government could partly pay for them and maintain them (still leaving about $30k gap). We could be closer to our goal than we thought. The final decision as to what chair to go with for each child is yet to be made - as they all have different requirements - but one bonus of local sourcing is the reduced ongoing maintenance cost. The Reads are very much looking forward to this Saturday's Balloon Glow event in Canowindra, where a collection will be taken up on their behalf. Volunteers to assist in this collection are desperately being sought. Jemimah Read is thankful that the triplets were chosen to be recipients of this local collection, and wishes to thank the community for all the goodwill and support they have received. For more details on the chairs, fundraising or muscular dystrophy, please contact Jemimah 0458 090 967.
