Pictured is the latest bulky item to be dumped around the back of Dora Creek Hall.
If you recognize it or know who may have dumped it, please advise them that it’s never acceptable to dump unwanted items at Dora Creek Hall.
Previously, a full (worn out) leather lounge suite was dumped around the back of Dora Creek Hall.
Those who dump such bulky items, would have to be fit enough to climb our fence and lift the items over the fence.
We do not knowingly accept such bulky items as we don’t have the resources or storage area to manage bulky items.
Currently there are a small number of dedicated volunteers, mainly elderly people aged in their 70s and 80s with the usual knee, back and shoulder disabilities that seem to come with the aging process.
When the Hall is used as a dump, those volunteers bear the costs of getting rid of these items.
Dora Creek Hall has been owned by this community since 1918.
Over the past 108 years there have been many people who’ve volunteered their time and expertise to ensure that the organisation, Dora Creek School of Arts Inc. is financially sound and that the Hall itself is in good condition for use by the community.
It’s disappointing to see that there are people in the community who take advantage of the organisation by dumping their unwanted bulky items for the organisation to bear the cost of disposal.
