THE PUSH IS ON FOR $300,000 FOR CAMDEN HAVEN SURF CLUB

 

Independent MP for Port Macquarie, Robert Oakeshott, this week met with Peter Winfield from the Camden Haven Chamber of Commerce, and the Director-General of Sport, Darrell Clout, to start the push for a major upgrade for the Camden Haven SurfClub.

"It is time this surfclub got a major upgrade, and the state will be opening a round of funding in June, where up to $300,000 can be applied for to do building works. I am confident that on the back of Peter putting together a good submission, we can lobby hard to get this application looked at favourably, Mr Oakeshott said.

"I want to see this project successful, so that Camden Haven Surfclub can grow in the local area. In the 100th anniversary of Surf Life-Saving, this would be a great gift to the Camden Haven community from State Government and I look forward to lobbying hard to make this happen, Mr Oakeshott said today.
