■ Oberon and District Museum’s wood raffle winner was Nina Lane from Titania Estate. The winning ticket was drawn by Sarah-Jane Holland from Oberon Visitor Information Centre. Nina was thrilled with the win, as her wood pile was fairly sparse. Organisers thank the Oberon community for their ongoing support to raise funds for the museum’s new pavilion. The museum is open Saturdays and Sundays from 10.30am to 5pm (closed September 20 and 21 due to the Camp Quality Tractor Trek); entry via Scotia Avenue. Volunteeers would like to thank Anthony McMahon from Chemcoag for supplying the equipment, etc to deliver and store the wood for the raffles. Keep an eye on this space for Oberon and District Museum’s 25th birthday celebration in October.
