Welcome to 2010 (Update 15th January 2010) Welcome to a new year. We hope everyone in the region received some of the much needed rain over the Christmas break. In December BJFG advertised the Project Officer's position. We are happy to announce that the position has been filled. We look forward to formally welcoming the new coordinator to the group and the BJFG members in early February. The Federal Government's Caring for our Country Business Plan for 2010-11 has been released. We are eager to examine the plan and see what new opportunities will be available for the group for the next financial year.
