Community project update!

- We got to the next stage of funding. Which we weren't expecting. I guess my silver tongue did the job. 😂

- Started canvassing local community and so far, feedback has been positive.

- Now working on more community engagement and planning for the big get together where we sell our project to the public.

On which note, see attached! If you just "happen to be in the area", drop in and say hello!
