Newswrap...

Didn't get to our coffee morning at Beechworth Bakery this week, so here's a delayed weekly newswrap from Healesville's local papers...
  • The Shire of Yarra Ranges has the worst death rate from smoking in the eastern metro region. (Leader, 22 Sept, page 9)
  • A Yarra Ranges Enterprise Centre is being established in Healesville, which will accommodate five tenants - two for developing business with subsidised support and three tenants with established businesses. A great support for businesses with new ideas, especially from youth, the indigenous community and women. (Leader, 22 Sept, page 17)
  • Lots of letters to the editor about the North-South (Sugarloaf) Pipeline - it continues to be a hot issue in the area.
  • The new Badger Creek CFA station was officially opened last week.
