THE MOUNT GARNET PROGRESS ASSOCIATIONOur meetings are held on the third Monday of each month at the Visitor Information Centre and everyone is welcome to join. Please contact Secretary to confirm.We
are a group of people who love this part of the world and dedicate some
of our time to offer something that may respond to a need of the stable
community or of those who happen to stay here temporarily. Historical
documents show the existence of a Progress Association in 1898, when Mr
James Potter, its secretary, sent a letter to the Education Department
highlighting the need for a provisional school to be established.
The population of Mount Garnet during that period was about 2000 people at its peak, level that markedly decreased due to the reduction of mining activities. The number of residents at present is quite stable at about 400 and our mission is to look at all the elements that can be developed to benefit everyone. We hope the creation of this web site will contribute to the spread of information necessary to advance in the right direction towards a bright future. President
