💚 It's a bittersweet day for the Blackbutt Kiosk which has opened its window for the last time.
From humble beginnings selling cans of drink from an esky in a replica 'Pioneer Cottage' in the early 2000's, the Blackbutt Kiosk has been serving the community (and treats for our animals) ever since.
City of Newcastle would like to thank all of the volunteers who have worked in the kiosk. Furthermore, a massive shout out to the Blackbutt staff, both past and present, that worked behind the scenes so the kiosk could operate seamlessly.
The Kiosk will close to permit construction on our new Multipurpose Community Facility and Café.
During construction, the Blackbutt volunteers will still be present in the reserve, available to provide directions and information on our resident cuddly critters.
