In mid 2016 Beltana Progress Association, in partnership with the Outback Communities Authority, secured funds from two grants for the development of a Community Picnic Grounds. The historic Water Reserve in the middle of town was chosen as the location for this project and work commenced in late 2016.
So far, a total of 50 locally native trees have been planted which will provide shade and dust management in coming years as well as making it visually more appealing.
Many groups and individuals helped achieve this fantastic outcome for the community and the Progress Association would like to especially thank all of the community members who spent so much time and effort on various work days, the OCA, for auspicing and aquitting the grants to make the project possible and all the contractors who provided professional services.
