Our TownAs a Poona local there is much on offer and unselfishly supported by our wonderful community volunteers. Take the time to explore our local area and our walking trails, enjoy the exercise and see some of the wonderful flora and fauna on offer. More information on these trails on the above 'Nature Trails' link. Our Centenary Hall is the focal point for the community with regular activities at the Hall that include exercise classes, Tai Chi, Yoga, Craft, Line Dancing, singing etc. so you are most welcome to join in. If you haven't been yet, come along on a Friday night (from 5 PM) at the hall for a cold ale or a nice wine with great home style cooking, and above all enjoy the great company. Hopefully take away one of the prize meat trays. The Poona Community has a proud history of supporting our community and also raising funds for worthwhile charities/causes including ongoing support to the Sandy Straits Rural Fire Brigade and the Sandy Straits Coast Guard.
