Daryl has been with us the whole time through our journey at the store and we have been very grateful for his commitment to the store and to us... love you and going to miss you lots

23.01.2022 This is good news.

23.01.2022 It was a emotional farewell this morning... I have loved my work and what we have done for the store. We have met some amazing people in the community and feel very close to a lot of you. The 12 1/2 years we have been there has been an awesome journey with some great challenges. Garry and I both wish you all the best and would love to catch up or visit you again in the future. Love Lyn and Garry

23.01.2022 Garry and I have been deeply moved by the messages from people. We are simply overwhelmed by how we have appeared to have touched peoples lives. We had no idea how most of you felt for us. The love and support we have received has now had us question if we made the right decision and should have left. We want to apologise to all the people we never got to say good bye to and hope to see you some time in the New Year. Alpurrurulam was a big part of our life and will always hold a place in our hearts. Love Garry and Lyn

Well time is getting near for that big day we all look forward to. 57 Days to go and the store will be putting on another wonderful Christmas party Please note, only kids on the list that is displayed in the store will be receiving presents. If you live in Alpurrurulam and your child attends school here and they are not on the list, please come and see Lyn to add their name. ** Please NO DRUNKS, this is a night for the kids, a chance for them to see that big jolly man in that red suit ** Thank you - Management

13.01.2022 Well done Shericka ... so proud of you, and you should be so proud of yourself. You are an inspiration to us all.

13.01.2022 Yet again the store has been broken into, this is getting out of hand. The damage and the cost of the damage is outrageous. In one of the photos you will see a $500 neon screen laying on the floor, and that’s only the start of it. There is a $100 cash reward for the name of this person in the footage attached. This person is going to be charged. Too often the police can’t be bothered cause it’s too far to come and then nothing gets done about it and they always get away with it. Well enough is enough we are over all these break ins. Not only does it keep us up for the rest of the night, we are then expected to open up and work all day. It’s just about the same time in the morning. PLEASE NOTE CASH AND CIGARETTES ARE ALL LOCK AWAY EVERY NIGHT IN THE SAFE. So stop looking for them, you won’t get them. Other photos in comments

13.01.2022 New works going on to end the year. New fence should be up by the end of next week. The guys worked late last night to get the concrete down as the temperature was too hot in the day. It’s all looking good this morning.

12.01.2022 Thank you Steve Edgington for supporting our community. Finally we have someone to help stand up for us.

Please think twice before bringing your dogs out to the shop and walking them on that hot ground. Please do not leave your dogs in hot cars. Please make sure you have lots of water out for them. If you think it is too hot for you, imagine how much hotter it is for your animals.

02.01.2022 What do you reckon Alpurrurulam Do you think we could get all those people working at Rainbow Gateway to do something like this for the kids of Alpurrurulam I think it’s a fantastic idea. https://www.facebook.com/indigenous.gov.au/videos/10155236191901961/
