After a very successful school holiday program and visit from author and Model T expert John Duncan (it's been a great week in the Shire with all the beautiful Model T Fords here) we are now gearing up for the Victorian Seniors Festival. We have joined forces with the Glaucoma Australia who will be visiting each branch next week to conduct free talks about Glaucoma. Glaucoma is the name given to a group of eye diseases in which the optic nerve at the back of the eye is slowly and permanently destroyed. If you need to know more about the condition please come along to one of the sessions or go to http://www.glaucoma.org.au/ for more information.
The free sessions are as follows, please contact Karen on 5482 1997 if you require further information.
