Cecily and Leslie at the Jarlmadangah Store.
     The Jarlmadangah Store is another community initiative. After being Chairperson of the Community from 1998 to 2000, Leslie Butt now co-ordinates the day to day running of the store. Two years ago community members began building the store with their own money. Some outside help was needed to furnish the interior, but the shop again represents the ideal of building the community from within.
     Bringing the goods to the people means they can concentrate their energy more in the local area without having to make regular trips to Derby, the nearest town.
 

The store under construction. Well-stocked shelves and refrigerators.
