As Time Goes by - The Marysville Cookbook (Updated 4th April 2014)

As stated in my previous post - I will be sending the remaining Marysville cookbooks out to various (chosen at random) CFA stations across the state.

As at the 4th April 2014, the following stations have had books mailed out (or recentlyish!) - Only 5 per station, mainly due to postage weights and costs. 5 books = 3kg - which is the satchel weight.

Baxter
Bemm
Bookaar
Charlton
Coldstream
Corryong
Dixons Creek
Launching Place
Mosquito Creek
Rowville

 It is going to take some time to get the remaining books out, I did ask for some assistance with the cost of postage, but unfortunately the Marysville Cookbook does not fit into the sponsorship ideals of Australia Post.

As the cost of postage is $12.75 per package and the packaging is $2.00, it will amount to a considerable sum.

As I have stated throughout the prior 5 years, there was no profit, nor intention of profit and thus the funds will have to be sourced from my own pocket and this will take a little bit of time.

I apologise for the delay to those CFA stations that have been selected at random to receive cookbooks, but they are coming!

I won't name the stations here beforehand, but as the packages go in the mail. I will name in subsequent posts.

For those of you who purchased a copy of the Marysville Cookbook and for those of you involved in the CFA, thank-you for being you and being where you need to be in times of need.

$8,000 has been raised and given back to Marysville via various community groups, please see the rest of the posts, to see who and when!

There are still copies available for purchase if you would like to still help the Marysville Community. Please visit www.marysvillecookbook.com and make your selection from there.

Thank-you for your support
