23.01.2022 Qld Parks & Wildlife Service have advised that the Westside Track is closed from Western Window Lookout to Lawton Rd due to a significant rock/tree fall. The area is unstable and will require extensive repair work (including the likely need for specialists to winch large rocks). The track is closed until 30 June 2020. A Park Alert has been issued on the Qld Parks and Wildlife Service (DES) webpage advising of the closure. The Western Window track remains open between Western Window lookout and Maiala.

16.01.2022 Please see information received from the Department of Main Roads advising that the upgrade works on Mount Glorious rd (PEI rd) between Dawson Creek Rd Highvale, and the T-intersection at the top of the hill (PEI rd) are to commence shortly. The works are Stage 1 of the Mount Glorious Road Route Safety Upgrade Project. We are also are in contact with Main Roads in relation to Stage 2 of the Project which includes road safety upgrades from the T-intersection at the top of th...e hill from Samford, through Mount Glorious village and down the western side of the mountain. As you may be aware, we have previously raised a number of issues with Main Roads in relation to road safety through the village. We anticipate receiving further information from Main Roads on the design of the Stage 2 upgrades in the coming month or so and will provide a further update once that information is received

15.01.2022 Hi All, It's that time of year again, 4 years has flown by, it's time for new and improved Council elections ! - to save you some time, and having to ask each Mayoral and Division 11 candidate what they can do for you to earn your vote, I have asked each candidate the same question below -(Cherie Porter and Eric Shields were unable to be tagged) I have sent the question by text to all 5 Candidates. I will post replies. Councillor Peter Flannery for Mayor Dean For Mayor Moret...on Bay Regional Council Chris Thompson 2020 Darren Grimwade What policies or ideas do you have to better the lives of the residents who live in the mountain communities and are at the edge of the region? Our communities are going through demographic change, we have an aging population, and an emerging population of children. Our communities are sorely lacking infrastructure and services. Will you commit to give equitable spending on projects to Mt Glorious and Mt Nebo ? Mount Glorious Community Association does not endorse any Candidate and is asking this question on behalf of residents to assist you in making an informed decision on election day.

12.01.2022 We still have some vacancies for Markets on the Mountain at Mt Nebo on Sunday 6th December. The focus is on locally created crafts.

If you have beautiful, hand-made products that you would like to sell at our pre-Christmas market, please email [email protected]

12.01.2022 +UPDATED* Hi Everybody, Please be advised that yesterday the Queensland Government has issued a Home Confinement Direction Order for all residents of Queensland. This means that you are unable to have any more than two people apart from your family inside your house.... According the Chief Medical Officer, The Health Minister and The Premier ,you can only leave your house to get food and medicine, go to work, exercise, visit the doctor or to provide care to someone you are responsible for. If you leave your residence for any other reason you are considered to be failing to adhere to the order and the result is a possible $1334 fine. https://www.facebook.com/nikkiforpinerivers/videos/2853292038097146/ QLD National Parks day use areas and camping areas and SOME walking tracks have been closed, as well as parks with exercise equipment, playgrounds, gyms, skate parks, bike tracks and barbecues. Check the park's website for individual restrictions pertaining to the different parks and regions. Some residents have already had a visit or phone call from the Qld Police Service (including myself) and some are letting their children out to go and socialise at other peoples houses and not observing social isolation protocols. Please remember that authorities are serious about enforcing this Public Heatlh Order and people are reporting their neightbours. If Mt Glorious residents require assistance with the challenges of being isolated, e.g having access issues to groceries, medication, or need urgent home maintenance (loss of power etc - no water etc) Please call 0491 110 778 or email us and we will endeavour to do our best to help you or facilitate a solution for you. https://www.health.qld.gov.au///home-confinement-direction

10.01.2022 Hi all. Please be advised that we have just received this notification from MBRC regarding Mt Glorious Community Hall - , ’ - , . , , ... . . .

08.01.2022 Queensland National Parks is currently developing a sign, to be erected at the new shelter at Maiala, celebrating some of the history of the old shelter. As a result they are looking for people with stories to tell about their connection to the old shelter, or other interesting details or events connected to it. If you can help please forward your name and contacts to Bill at [email protected] and he will forward them on to QPWS

07.01.2022 Maiala will reopen this Saturday the 23rd. Some areas will be cordoned off to allow new turf to regenerate but head up and check out the new renovations. Big thanks to Nikki Boyd MP for helping to save an iconic local structure and QPWS and Enprocon for great build.

06.01.2022 Calling all artists and craftspeople! With not Art with Altitude scheduled this year (owing to the rebuild of the hall) we are looking at a limited involvement in the Samford Arts Trail in June. While this is expensive to do as an individual, we can have a very affordable arrangement as a group of at least 10 artists. ... We can also opt to only open only one or two weekends out of the four, thereby reducing weekend involvement, as well as the cost of hall hire. Participants of the group can either open their own studio space or display their work in the Mt Glorious hall. The total cost per artist would be a maximum of $50-$70 (1-2 weekends). Non-members of Creative Samford would also have to pay the $25 yearly membership. If we decide to open the weekend of 6th/7th June, we would be included in a regional food & wine tour which would add the Mt Glorious studios to its itinerary. I need to respond to Creative Samford as soon as possible, so please let me know by the end of this week if: 1) You are interested in participating 2) How many weekends you would be prepared to do (given you are expected to be on site to talk to visitors) 3) If you would be available the weekend of 7th/8th June Rose
