Established in 2010, the Collector and District Historical Association is dedicated to researching, collating and preserving the rich history of the Collector village and surrounding areas.

The CCA is the central community organisation through which all community organisations and residents can gather, express their views and plans and be represented to the Upper Lachlan Shire Council. Its interests lie in the co-ordinated improvements to the Collector community.

The Collector Memorial Hall belongs to the community. It was built by the community in the early 50s. Since then it has been well maintained and managed by local volunteers.

Collector Oval Committee has been busy with projects in the oval precinct.

Completed Projects such as shade sails for the outdoor gym and playground, a front fence, sealed carpark, tree plantings, a BBQ and Shelter.

Planned Projects we are applying for funding to complete are, drinking water, a second BBQ, a 3 phase power upgrade, and improvements to The Pavilion building.

The Biggest Project, and most complex, is the Oval Redevelopment project. This includes replacement of invasive poplars along the southern boundary with vegetation to provide an all year round screen from the highway, reshaping the current surface so as to provide space for summer and winter field sports and importantly, not to pool water at the southern end of the playing surface. It will also include comprehensive irrigation and resowing with ‘sports grass’.

The Oval Committee has done, and is planning to do a lot of work and welcomes anyone who would like to lend a hand. If you are interested in helping on the Oval Committee please feel free to come along and meet the team.

Established more than 20 years ago, the Collector Pot Black Club’s mission is to enhance Collector, working with the broader community, for the benefit of the whole community.  The Club runs community events including sporting games, pool tournaments, discos, Christmas Parties, BBQ’s, raffles and lends it’s support to other community groups to support local projects.
