Christmas message from Melina Bath, wishing you a merry Christmas and safe travels this holiday season
This holiday season, Melina Bath thanks you for your kindness and generosity, for the honor to represent eastern Victoria, and wishing you a peaceful, joyful Christmas and a happy, healthy 2025.
As Christmas and for many, the holidays rapidly approach, may I take this opportunity to thank you for the contribution you make to our beautiful eastern Victoria region. Our streets are a hive of activity. It is good to see our small businesses busy as Christmas events draw people to our town hubs and CBDs to shop and dine locally.
Melina Bath wishes you, "May you celebrate Christmas with love in the way of your choice and may peace, good health and happiness be your foundation to begin 2025"
Community spirit shines
The holiday season is a wonderful opportunity to touch base with neighbours and friends and spend time with loved ones. Kindness and compassion are ever present in our region with many examples of locals helping locals. It has been heartwarming to see charities receiving donations of toys, clothing, and food hampers to share with households where budgets are especially tight.
To all those who have donated, looked in on a neighbour or gone out of your way to show kindness, I thank you for your generosity. This year signalled my ninth representing eastern Victoria in state parliament, and it is an honour that I continue to cherish and never take for granted.
Holiday safety message
I am deeply committed to our region's prosperity and the wonderful people and communities making up our rich fabric. Remaining focused on advocating for those in need and fighting for our fair share, it is time for a short break, a reset and return renewed for the new year.
The roads will be busy as tourists flock to our coastal towns over the summer break. If you are travelling on our roads, please take care, be patient and always drive to the conditions. May you celebrate Christmas with love in the way of your choice and may peace, good health and happiness be your foundation to begin 2025.
