It could mean let go of an object, like a rope, a safety net, a balloon, a leash, the handlebars, an oar, a waterbomb or a plate full of cakes. It could also mean letting go of your fears, hopes, regrets, bad decisions or bad habits. It could mean letting go of the past. You can interpret the theme any way you like. ‘The Long Way Home’ is about our stories and who we are. It’s about what makes this place so special and unique,’ said the winner of last year’s open category, Kathryn Goldie. Everyone from schoolkids to adults is invited to send something in. The competition is open to new, emerging and established writers. This may be something, or perhaps you have been writing for years. Let the theme inspire you, and start putting down some words! We asked Claire Aman, one of the Long Way Home directors, year.‘After four years of collecting stories from across every part of the Clarence Valley, I can say the local writers just get better and better! Have you read the winners from the latest book? They’re amazing,’ said Aman. ‘So, this year, I want to see how creative our local writers are with the theme. I expect to be surprised, shocked, moved – and to laugh lots.’ The collection of every year in a beautifully designed and printed book. ‘Stories From the Clarence Valley 2021 - Look Up’, is available online.

There is a range of jobs that can be a gift shop, fashion parades, jumble sales and luncheons. People with cars are very important to the running of these operations to transport material to the various venues. The branch meetings are held monthly and the cost of membership is only $5 per year. There are some procedures that have to processed, such as police checks.
