Girl Guides plant 20 mature trees.

TREES PLANTED

Brian and Maree Harrison (Harrison Funerals) have once again donated trees to community groups in the Ballarat district. This time around, 20 mature trees were planted at the Girl Guides camp at Creswick, due to the generosity of this caring couple.   Harrison Funerals Hi_Res_RGB   Harrison Funerals ‘strive to ensure that every family’s funeral experience is a positive one and through (their) care and service (they) are able to ease some of the grief and assist the healing process’. Harrison Funerals plant one mature tree on the behalf of every family for whom they provide a funeral service.   tree planting  
The planting went really well last month. We had our Ballarat Begonia Girl Guides (aged 6-10) assist us whilst on camp, and their Dads came out for the planting and were a great help. Lingbogol Camp at Creswick is going to look fantastic when the trees mature! We planted 120 small trees and 20 of the larger mature trees. Thank you to Maree and Brian Harrison for all our lovely trees. Kelli Morgan | Leader |Begonia Girl Guides

David Cook-Doulton and Martin Shew always thought regional towns of Ballarat and Bendigo had a world-class feel. They could see it in the wide streets, the grand buildings and beautiful botanical gardens. And so two world-class hotels were created – Hotel Vera (Ballarat) and Hotel Ernest (Bendigo). Both hotels link luxury with environmental awareness as part of ‘true luxury, founded upon environmental integrity’.
