Some of you may not know about the fun initiative that has been created in our community - The Albany Bear and Rainbow Hunt. The idea has come from the family classic “We’re Going on a Bear Hunt” storybook. The game requires residents to put a teddy in a window and/or rainbow chalk messages/pictures on footpaths for children to spot on their neighbourhood walks or drives.
