Can you help?
Background
Our Sarsfield Recreation Reserve and Hall is located on Crown Land managed by DEECA (Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action). The EGSC (East Gippsland Shire Council) has no responsibility for and is not involved in the facility's ongoing management or maintenance, so our community is responsible for maintaining these facilities.
Current Situation
- For the past 4+ years, toilet cleaning has been funded through Bushfire recovery funds
- This funding has now ceased
- As an interim measure, the Men's and Ladies' toilets are currently locked
- One unisex toilet remains open for use between events
Volunteer Maintenance Program
We are seeking community volunteers to assist with the following tasks:
Areas Requiring Maintenance
1. Toilet facilities
2. BBQ area ( Clean BBQ and blow leaves off)
3. Veranda (leaf removal)
4. Playground mulch monitoring
Proposed Schedule
- Primary cleaning: Weekly thorough clean
- Additional maintenance: Brief touch-ups between scheduled cleans
Get Involved
We are currently finalizing the roster system and need your input on whether volunteers should commit to:
- One-week periods, or
- One-month periods
Please contact Cathy Mclellan to volunteer or provide feedback on the proposed schedule.
