ROCK ON Janette Mitchelson of the Westbury Library for launching the Westbury Rock Challenge during the school holidays. Janette said the free initiative can be enjoyed by everyone in the local community including children, families, friends and bike riders. Participants just need to register at the Library to collect a clue sheet and maps, before they head out to find the numbered rocks that are hidden at strategic locations around the Westbury area.

The two courses are designed to get people out and about and enjoying the town at a time that suits them, especially on warmer days. ‘We have had many fantastic participants enjoying picnics on the shady Village Green.’ Westbury Rock Challenge will finish towards the end of March, so school groups, scouts or anyone interested in improving their knowledge of the local history and environment, are encouraged to contact the Westbury Library 6701 2189 or email: westbury. library@education.tas.gov.au Janette would like to thank all the local businesses who donated the weekly prizes.
