2011:Looking back on the second half year

19 Dec, 2011 02:23 PM

SO, that was the year that was 2011.

For Dungog it was a mixed bag: Mother Nature took her toll; our community celebrated on a number of fronts - from a centenary on the railway to the bigger than ever film festival and Radio Dungog's birth.

At the heart of everything ... our people.

Here at the Chronicle, we offer our thanks and gratitude to our community for the another spectacular 12 months. Ours is a position of privilege and we appreciate the good grace of everyone who has welcomed us into their homes again this year.

Here's how we saw the second half of the year ...
