 Tom McINTOSH (Eastern Victoria) (09:54): I would like to acknowledge Mr Limbrick’s statement. I thoroughly agree.

It was great to celebrate the opening of the Korumburra skate park on Friday, being around town and talking to different community groups during the day, with families talking about how much kids are getting up and using it alongside the new netball courts and netball rooms, the footy club rooms and the lights at the rec reserve with the new synthetic pitch for the cricket club and the soccer club. Korumburra youth have got heaps of local sport activities to get into. Thanks to the shire, deputy mayor Brad Snell and of course Bron Beach, the local Korumburra councillor, and all the council staff put on a great event to celebrate opening the skate park. It of course is part of the railway precinct and all the new parking on that side of town, the new streetscaping that has gone on and the new pathway that goes through to the community hub. The centre of Korumburra is alive. The town has a massive history, but it has got a very bright, even bigger future.
