It was established 20 years ago to promote the development of the Lucindale district and community by developing projects, identifying funding opportunities and acting as an umbrella body for various community organisations/projects.

By Rochelle Schenscher It’s not everyday you get to meet a sporting icon but these lucky girls from The Keith Tennis Club got that chance.  During the Adelaide International in January clubs were invited to participate in a Red ball challenge. Over 100 kids aged 5-8yrs participated, teams of four played 10 minute half court matches.
