A project to raise funds to build memorials at the Cobar Cemetery to honour former Cobar residents Kate McKenzie and Johnny the Balt (John Kowalski) has been kicked off with a generous donation of $500 from the members of the Cobar Buffalo Lodge.

Details of how to make a donation to the project can be found in the committee’s advertisement on Page 16.
