Ms NEVILLE (Bellarine—Minister for Water, Minister for Police and Emergency Services)
On Sunday, 8 March, I had the pleasure of turning the sod on the Point Lonsdale Surf Club new clubhouse. The facility includes first-class training areas, much-needed increased storage, social facilities, and it will also serve as a community hub.
The state government contributed $2.4 million to the project, while the club raised an amazing $2.25 million. Point Lonsdale is a great club, led by a hardworking committee, and I have been pleased to work with them. Congratulations to all involved, in particular Matthew Ponsford, Michael Doery, and Chris Harper. Also member Jess Robinson for being named Queenscliffe Young Citizen of the Year.
