Founding President of the Croydon Park Business Chamber, Hassan Moussa of RM Gregory Promoprint has served the Croydon Park local community for years. By lobbying all three councils of Georges River Rd (GRR) to improve conditions for local businesses, to keep business local and was instrumental in calling for a Tripartite Committee amongst all 3 councils to make talks easier and less time consuming on Board Members – all volunteers who would take time away from their own small businesses to help all the businesses in CP.

Well the late Barbara Holborow would have had a field day with this one… Not one to hold back, she would have definitely told this petrol station what it can do with its corporate policy of, and I quote, “not displaying any promotional material that does not fit in with the business”. The item in question was the yellow Experience Croydon Park Festival poster. It would be displayed for a total of 15 days. Yet looking around the premises, this is the image they promote their business with instead – take a look. Most likely they have been there for years. Very community minded indeed, wouldn’t you say, Barbara ?! Scouts Australia will be at the Experience Croydon Park Festival, running activities all day. Get active with the family and come along to the Festival on Saturday, Nov 12 from 10am-4pm in Seymour Street, Croydon Park.

Looking forward to Maranello’s Veloce at our Festival on Sat 12… As I walk up the street towards the Croydon Park Public School, the air deliciously wafts past me from Maranellos. These lucky school kids doing their outdoor activities are getting the best of both worlds. It will certainly make their mouths water!! I can hear them saying “What’s for dinner tonight Mum?” My recommendation? Linguine with King Prawns. Yum.
