To better serve their local community, Hillview Seventh-day Adventist Church members relocated their Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) thrift shop from Tuggerah to larger premises in Morisset, New South Wales, Australia, in August 2020. Now they are closer to where volunteers live, allowing the shop to be a more effective community hub, managers said. Alongside providing affordable household and clothing items, the facility offers important services to the community.
Locally known as the David Jones Op Shop, running the 1,000-square-meter (10,700 square-foot) shop is no small feat, even for 70 enthusiastic volunteers. There are no paid workers on site.
Zhik Combined High Schools Sailing Championships at Belmont 16ft Sailing Club after Day 2 by Rod Carter 7 Apr 15:43 UTC 6-9 April 2021
The Zhik Combined High School Championships (CHS) commenced this week at Belmont 16ft sailing Club, with the usually large fleet numbers (120+ boats) well down from previous years.
The regatta is in its 54th year and is an iconic event that allows Secondary school students to enter any class of boat and represent their school. Over the years the CHS sailing regatta has seen many sailors progress to State, National, World and America s Cup champions. Take nothing away from the smaller number of competitors this year, the racing is still as fierce at the top of the leader board.
