Earlier this year Upper Lachlan Shire Council assisted the club by helping them buy a mower, which was about to be traded in.
We asked council if they would be prepared to sell the mower at valuation price, and council agreed to the request.

The race club had asked the council if they would be prepared to sell the mower at valuation price, and the council agreed.
The mower is handling the conditions well, and the whole track can be mown in under four hours. Race club president Margaret Carr was on hand at the last working bee to put the new mower through its paces.
“The mower will take a load off the committee and make the job a whole lot easier,” Ms Carr said.
A roster has been drawn up and the track will be mowed every two or three weeks until race day.
Interest has already been shown in next year’s race meeting, and membership and tent site forms will be sent out in January.
