The small community of Pyalong is being supported by a community group, the Friends of the Bendigo-Kilmore Rail Trail. A cheque for $184 was presented to the Pyalong Community House’s President Moira Waye, by Friends member Judy McLaren.
From an annual social event, the Friends members donate spare cash to help other worthy community organisations. Moira and her team provide support to their community during events such as COVID19 lock downs, floods, droughts, and fires. During the presentation, Moira highlighted a number of wonderful stories about the involvement by local individuals during such difficult periods.
With the Friends of the Bendigo-Kilmore Rail Trail group’s efforts to also extend the popular O’Keefe Rail Trail into Pyalong, a small town that has two large amazing heritage timber railway bridges, such a connected trail would also support Pyalong’s businesses and create new opportunities.
