A THREE-DAY trip to Ararat, Victoria, is planned to familiarise Cooma and district residents with the effects of windfarms. The trip is planned for late May and will cost local residents wanting to attend, but will hopefully answer any questions they may have.

Beverley Allen from the Friends of Renewable Energy, based in Berridale, is organising the event and encourages locals to come along. "We will be offering residents a trip to the Challicum Hills Wind Farm - which is a very successful windfarm. It is the perfect example of the community and the NSW Government working together well," Mrs Allen said.
