The Snowy River Echo is your only locally owned, pub- lished and printed magazine. We take pride in this and love supporting the community in any way we can. I had a phone call in early February from a resident in Berridale, the lady thought she had missed January’s edition. Explaining to me that she posts a copy each month to an old friend in New Zealand that used to work on the Snowy. I replied with joy now knowing that the magazine (if only one copy) gets to New Zea- land. As discussed with this regular reader, I mentioned that the magazine hasn’t been published in January before but as per the communities feedback we will as of next year publish 12 editions a year. The Monaro’s agriculture show season is upon us. So please support our local towns by attending or partic- ipating! I will be participating in a few of the horse events my self, feel free to come over and say hi! I took a drive to Buchan the other week, a little exploring down the Barry Way to the Mountain Cattlemen’s Get Together. Hosted by the Mountain Cattlemen’s Association of Victoria a great weekend was had by all and on pages 12 and 13 you have a read about some of the history and what went on.
