Murrindindi Shire Council recently launched its ‘Find Yourself Outside’ project, with a number of exciting initiatives and activities planned to encourage locals and visitors to experience outdoor dining, events and unique experiences within the Shire.
The project will enable the activation of public outdoor settings in a COVIDSafe way, with the aim of supporting local business recovery, community safety and visitor confidence.
Tourism, Events and Business Support Portfolio Councillor Ilona Gerencser said Council has received funding support from the Victorian Government’s COVIDSafe Outdoor Activation Fund 2021 to deliver this fantastic project.
‘To encourage you to ‘find yourself outside’, Council will deliver some unique outdoor events and entertainment – like our free ‘pop up cinema’ screenings. These are fantastic events for the whole family!’ said Cr Gerencser.
‘We’ll also support local businesses and industries by upgrading current public outdoor infrastructure to bolster future use and by installing new infrastructure.
‘Council’s ambition for this project is for communities and businesses in Murrindindi Shire to benefit from these outdoor settings and activities, not only during the COVID-19 recovery period, but well into the future.
‘Over the coming months, Council will be delivering a range of initiatives through this project – so, stay tuned! To promote these initiatives, we’ll be using the hashtag #FindYourselfOutside.
