Last Thursday, 30th of January exactly a week after our opening, the Board was full.
Over a 192 spaces had been filled with thoughts, dreams, aspirations and the odd obscenity or three.
Jude and I cleaned off every second space to allow the community conversation to continue.
Whilst we were there, two local gentleman returning, turned away from a sold out Aurora Stadium popped by to read, ponder and discuss the board and its messages, insisting on leaving gold coin contributions and congratulating us on the good work. By Saturday the board had again reached almost capacity, documenting and cleaning some more spaces, we'll do another alternate large clean on Wednesday. Currently turning some of the more interesting chalk marks into postcards to redistribute as promotion for the project and as thanks for the the encouragement of many of our passing locals and tourists for their positive engagement.
