In appreciation for the community support Taswater received, they would like to invite you to a Community Breakfast BBQ at Our Park this Saturday 12 October. It will be from 8.30am – 11.00am.

The event is supported by the Rotary Club of Spring Bay who will be providing the BBQ.  Taswater will also provide colouring in activities for the children, and a warm beverage for everyone.

Once again, thank you for your patience and understanding as Taswater undertakes these important works for the benefit of the environment and the community.
