Free entry for locals
By Josie Collins, Media Manager, Naracoorte Lucindale Council LOCALS can once again enjoy free entry to the Naracoorte Caves when they take along their visiting family or friends in the re-launch of an exciting initiative to strengthen our unique connection with the World Heritage site. The timely re-launch of the initiative at the start of the July school holidays is a collaborative project between National Parks and Wildlife Service SA and Naracoorte Lucindale Council.

With savings in their pocket, the local family could pay for their visitors as a bit of a treat, or even split the costs with their […]

Lachy’s story is remarkable. Born at 23 weeks gestation he wasn’t expected to survive this premature birth and was given a 20% chance of survival. Lachy […]
