Community involvement

Somewhere along the way, community became less important than it used to be. We can change that by choosing to participate. Here are just a few ways that you, as a resident, can become involved.

Social events and groups

Visit The Community Farm for social events, workshops, and masterclasses.

Health and Wellbeing

Swim at Bay Beach – every morning (and we do mean EVERY morning) from 9am. It is very informal, so you never know who you will meet. Check Willy Weather for tides and conditions, know your abilities and let someone know where you will be swimming.

Women’s catch up is the second Friday of the month at 9:45 am, at Zeal & Flow.

Men’s breakfast is the fourth Friday of the month at 8:00 am, the Cape Corner Store.

Volunteering

Visit The Community Farm for volunteering opportunities such as gathering a harvest, weeding and mulching, creating compost, or showing groups around.

The Cape Care Crew are volunteers help with the gardening of the common property. They generally work on Friday mornings – contact the Owners Corporation Committee for more information.

Travelling between Cape Paterson and Melbourne? Offer someone a lift via the Cape Rideshare Group – contact the Owners Corporation Committee to be added to the Whatsapp Group.

Local Associations

As a resident of The Cape, you can to join the Cape Paterson Residents & Ratepayers Association (CPRRA) which works to maintain the high liveability of our coastal town and to conserve its natural environment.

Fireguard

Do you know what to do in case of fire? Do you know where the safer places are? Do you have any vulnerable neighbours who need assistance? The local CFA’s Fireguard program will help you prepare your home and your community for fire. You can find the CFA’s current fire information for Cape Paterson here.
