We are also participating in the 2008 Monster Petition Project which is celebrating 100 years of women's right to vote. The aim is to collect 30,000 signatures in acknowledgment of the achievement of the original Monster Petition and as a commitment to pursuing equality for women in all aspects of Victorian life. The banners will be sewn together at the end of the year and displayed at the November Finale and Parliament House Open Day. The banner will be at our Tongala branch for a few weeks and then will be moving onto Kyabram, Rushworth, Rochester and Echuca. Please call us on 1300 666 535 if you would like to know any more details about the events that I have just mentioned.
