Plans were in full swing for the inaugural Cessnock Relay For Life, with Katrina Richardson announced as the event’s patron.

Our February 20 edition featured the Babies of 2007 feature.

On the sporting front, the Cessnock Hornets published a book detailing the club’s first 100 years, and Cessnock and Kurri Kurri pools hosted the Special Olympics NSW long and short course competition.
