Welcome to the Shire of Moora


Moora District Tidy Towns Competition

We are seeking your sponsorship! Please contact the Shire of Moora to support our Tidy Towns Competition.

Our committee is currently organising the Moora District Tidy Towns Competition, which includes the locations of Moora, Watheroo and Miling. Last year we had some fabulous gardens and many community members within the Shire of Moora made a fantastic effort to life the image of our towns. Over the past week or so we have had some much needed rain and this provides our community members with a fantastic opportunity to get out into their gardens and make a difference to our community.

This program is about creating a better image for Moora and surrounding communities. It is supported by many local organisations and businesses who understand the role that improving the presentation of our towns plays in generating more pride in the community and further attracting visitors to our region.

We are trialling the “Best Rural Entrance Category” for the last time this year to see if any interest is generated. This category as not had much support in the past and next year there is a possibility it will be excluded from the competition. For those on the outskirts of towns, or between towns, this year is your opportunity to make an entrance statement and make the category competitive so that it remains part of the competition. Please be aware that the Rural Entrance category requires a nomination form with a photo of your rural entrance attached. This must be sent or delivered to the Shire of Moora by the closing date.

The Shire of Moora and our Tidy Town Committee are pleased to advise the following 9 categories and prizes for the 2008 competition:

Best Private Residential Garden $400 of vouchers
Most Improved Garden $300 of vouchers
Best GEHA Residential Garden $200 of vouchers
Best Homeswest Residential Garden $200 of vouchers
Best Waterwise Garden $400 of vouchers
Best Business & Shopfront $300 of vouchers
Best Govt & Local Government Building $300 of vouchers
Best Rural Entrance $300 of vouchers
Best Street presentation $400 street party

Our committee involves members from Moora, Miling and Watheroo and these volunteers will be apart of the official judging day to be held on Tuesday the 23rd September. Everyone is invited to attend the official presentation, which will be made on Wednesday 15th October in Moora.

We will have further details advertised in the Central Midlands & Coastal Advocate, in school newsletters and advertised on posters placed around Moora, Watheroo and Miling.

We are still finalising sponsors and hoping that those who have sponsored the event for several years consecutively continue their support in 2008. They have made a valuable contribution to the program and have worked well with the committee and the Shire of Moora in making the competition a success in the past. A full list of sponsors will be provided as part of our advertising campaign. Anyone who would like to sponsor the program should contact Rebecca Kelly at the Shire of Moora on 96 511 401.
