Barry Maney Group receives Rotary honour

The Barry Maney Group has been recognised by the Rotary Club of Mount Gambier Lakes with a certificate of appreciation, acknowledging the key role the Mount Gambier business has played in the club’s Headlight Check Program, which is held annually.

An initiative that started in 2002 in the Woolworths carpark on a Sunday afternoon, is now a well-patronised Thursday night at the Barry Maney Group premises with assistance from Maney staff, usually around 10 personnel, working alongside the Rotary members.

Millicent, Naracoorte, Bordertown and Casterton have also joined the program in recent years.
