Cundletown and Lower Manning Historical Society and Cundletown Museum volunteers will hold a breakfast on the first Sunday of the month for the foreseeable future. The breakfasts are held to raise funds for the museum and its projects. The museum had a short hiatus during the Christmas period and reopened on December 29. The society was recently awarded an 'in kind' grant towards the restoration of the cream/milk boat Sunlight, originally built in 1933. The grant has come from the Maritime Museums of Australia Project Support Scheme. he scope of the project is to do conservation work on the vessel to bring it back to its original condition, as much is is possible, aided by photos and information provided by workers who had worked at the Lower Manning Dairy Co-Op. The work will be supervised by ship right Graham Steber and will be undertaken when monies can be obtained by grants or other sources.
