Epping Score 1st and 2nd in the 60m state titles

Posted 6 September 2022

Epping District Athletics Club celebrated a double win on the podium recently. Carl Corey Ewing and Lewis Clabburn, both coached by Andrew Murphy took out first and second place: Carl with a time of 6.79 into a -1.7 wind and Lewis, 6.90 into a -1.7 wind.

Bendigo Community Bank Epping has had a long-standing relationship with EDAC, a legendary club with a history of producing winners. As recent winners of our business award, it was heartening to see our logo emblazoned on the winners’ outfits!

Helping local school P&Cs with a huge range of pro

Helping local school P&Cs with a huge range of projects is one of our top community activities. Last year we funded 14 projects, and another 6 have just been approved.

It's great to get out and see the result. Our Chair, Craig, recently visited Epping North PS and saw the sturdy new table tennis and outdoor furniture that the P&C organised. Whilst at Epping Public, it is new furniture for their Kookaburra Corner - a quiet spot for the children to chill out away from the lively playground.

Read about all the recent projects here: https://www.edfs2121.com.au/school-grants/ this funding is made possible by locals choosing to bank at Community Bank Epping as we invest 80% of profits back into our area through grants.

With soccer season upon us, having volunteers to help manage injuries is really important.
That's why we were happy to help Beecroft Football Club with a community grant to fund a pre-season first aid course. Enthusiastic members spent a Saturday learning important first aid. Hope you have a good season ahead - and maybe don't have to use the new skills to often!

This is one of seven new grants that have just been allocated to local sports clubs to help with 2025 projects. Read more here: https://www.edfs2121.com.au/sports-grants/

Looking for a local venue can be a hassle. Where can you hold a meeting or birthday party? Want to run a course or exercise classes? And you don't want to spend a fortune on venue hire ...
Luckily there are some great options in Epping. Two of them are the Epping Rotary Hall on Blaxland Road (super for meetings, classes and courses) and the North Epping Bowling and Social Club (larger functions fit well here as a licensed venue).
Community Bank Epping was happy, under our community grant program, to help both not-for-profit clubs do renovations to their buildings, making them venue-friendly. Read more, including how to contact them for bookings, here: https://www.edfs2121.com.au/epping-venues/

There's many different ways in which our grants help local sports clubs - as there is always so many things they need to ensure the players can focus on the sport.
Some items that Community Bank Epping funded for local soccer club Roselea Football Club were on display at their grading day - marquees for shade and shelter, nets and gear for practices, and a trailer for moving everything around from ground to ground.
Last year, we funded 18 projects for 10 local community sports clubs. Read about our grants here: https://www.edfs2121.com.au/news/community-blog/

The largest project Community Bank Epping has supported with grant funding is the North Epping Men's Shed - and it is now coming to fruition. Six years in the making, there is frequent activity at the Shed on Boundary Road as the final fit out is completed.
Dropping in on a Tuesday morning, the Shed is a hive of action with members active on many projects. Locals can now join as members and get involved - go to nems.org.au or call in.
This is a huge project for our area, so it will be great to see it fully operational later in the year. Read more at https://www.edfs2121.c#communitysupport

Helping our kids learn about biodiversity and gett

Helping our kids learn about biodiversity and getting them to plant new school gardens that will act as a B&B Highway for bees, birds and pollinators is the aim of PlantingSeeds - a not for profit educational group.
Community Bank Epping funded a project where they visit Epping schools and run a program that gets children involved right through to planting new native gardens. Last week was the turn of Epping Public School and our Chair, Craig Gallagher called in to meet the educators.
You can read about this great initiative at https://www.edfs2121.com.au/bb-highway/ - it will be visiting Epping North Public School in early April.
It is part of our grants program, that saw over 50 projects around Epping funded in 2024.

Summer sport is now winding down, as we hit autumn and soccer and netball teams gear up.

One of our recent community grant recipients is Tigers Baseball Club and these happy kids are the Zooka team who have made their way to the finals next week (along with two other Tiger teams). Good luck!

Community sports clubs are a great part of our local area - with lots of choice in sports. We are happy to be a regular financial sponsor of these clubs.
