Iluvlocal Launches In Forbes: On Tuesday the Forbes Phoenix gave a presentation on a brand new app due to launch across the Central West. Cheryl Newsom, publisher of the Phoenix, delivered the presentation and spoke of understanding change and the opportunity it presents, “changes are impacting on our businesses, the world has gone online. With this app you can instantly share deals, competitions or coupons to your client base, or as a consumer you can know what your favourite restaurant or shop has on special that day.” iluvlocal representative, Roselea
Buttigieg said; “This is a new and improved way for businesses to reach their customers and we’re looking forward to helping them expand their customer base through app technology.”

Got A Bike In Your Shed? Sunday, 13th March is the day to dust off the cobwebs from your bikes and join a group of cyclists at the East Street end of the Pak Park cycle path. Whether you’re riding a trike, a flash mountain bike or a penny farthing, enjoy the 2km route with experienced riders who can help with your seat height and tyres. The event begins at 8am and will even include a mechanic to fix any minor repairs! For more information ring Peter on
0448 166 016.

Field Day Fun: Next Friday, 11th March, local businesses will exhibit their products and services at a field day held at Parkes Racecourse from 10am onwards. Ideal for those with agricultural or gardening interests, come and view tractors, sprayers, seed and super bins, motorcycles and more! Entry to the day is free and you could win some great prizes.

Students Help Clean Up School! Students at Parkes Public School are participating in a tidy up of the school ground today as part of the ‘Clean up Australia Day Schools’ initiative. The school has been given packs which include gloves and rubbish bags and will present a great opportunity to teach students why it’s so important to look out for rubbish and clean up after themselves.

Circus Location Change: Australia’s largest animal circus has arrived in Parkes but has moved location! The new location of the circus, which will run until Sunday 6th March, is at Pioneer Oval, Alexandra Street. This family run circus is a must for lovers of our furry friends and includes mischievous monkeys, African lions and miniature trick ponies!
