Flood competition details
8th November 2009 -
Glenelg Hopkins CMA and Warrnambool City Council have partnered to capture valuable flooding photographs, drawings, short stories and personal accounts as part of a competition launched today.
The competition has been organised by Council and the CMA to collect information about local flooding events, both historical and recent, for the proposed new interpretive flood signage on Russell Creek and the Merri River. Winning entries will feature on the new signs.
Funding for the proposed flood signs was secured under the Victorian Government’s Emergency Management grants.
The signs will identify local-modelled flood levels, historic flood levels and general flood information as well as the successful competition entrants’ art works.

Glenelg Hopkins CMA Chief Executive Peter Butcher said the signs would be a great way to make the community aware of the impact of flooding in their neighbourhoods.
The competition will run until December 31. Community members are encouraged to submit entries to Glenelg Hopkins CMA “Warrnambool In Flood” at 79 French Street Hamilton.
