Events

When:6pm Tuesday 11th December. Perhaps get there by 5:45PM to be sure of getting in the door.
Where : George Town Council offices 16 Anne St George Town (i.e. same place as the ordinary monthly council meetings).

If you are a George Town Municipality elector, we think it would be very advantageous for you to attend the George Town Council annual general meeting where you will be able to voice your opinion and if you want, hand in a submission on the day.

We realise the meeting hasn't been advertised as widely as many electors would expect (i.e. in fact not very much at all).

When: Wednesday 12th December, 12:30pm - 1:30pm.

Sometime in the next few weeks, the ANZ bank will decide if it will fund Gunns' proposed pulp mill.

Help us continue to inform the public and ANZ customers on the bank's role in the destruction of Tasmania's forests and its potential funding of the pulp mill.

We are organising awareness-raising events outside ANZ branches in all major cities across Australia and in New Zealand.

You can help by coming along to the ANZ International Day of Awareness to form a large crowd outside each branch. Please come along in neat dress and bring your friends and family.

Where: Riverside High School Community Centre, behind the Riverside High School, Launceston.

When: 7.30-9.45pm, Thursday, 13 December.
