A cache lies here to celebrate the Mango Hill Community Center.
Mango Hill is a suburb north of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Its local government area is the Moreton Bay Region.
The area was named Mango Hill on 1 September 1980, after the mango trees lining Anzac Avenue as it passes through the area. Although the streets are named after different species or breeds of birds and celestial objects
In March 2006, the northern part of the suburb was subdivided to form the suburb of North Lakes by the Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Water.
The Mango Hill Progress Association (Inc) has, since 1986, been recognised as an advocate for Mango Hill and North Lakes residents on a wide range of logistical, social and infrastructure issues that require consideration in this, one of Australia’s fastest growing communities. The Association has successfully lobbied all levels of Government on issues of community interest and continues to achieve much by meeting regularly, discussing local issues and acting together.
The Community center itself was opened on 13th December 1987 as a place where the community could gather for events such as festivals, youth programs, annual Christmas Carols and fundraising activities for both the community and charitable
organizations.
(The Mango Hill News) and monthly meetings provide the opportunity for input and discussion of important issues currently affecting our local community. The Mango Hill Progress Association is respected for its community involvement in local events.
The Mango Hill Progress Association initiated and developed the facilities now located in Danzy Buchanan Park (Kinsellas Road West) with the assistance of various government programs. The Associaton manages the operations of the Mango Hill Community Centre (Hall, Tennis Court, Basketball Court) on behalf of the Moreton Bay Regional Council.
The center hosts a variety of events such as Yoga, Kids Play group, Kids Art Classes, Kids Dance and Fitness classes, Church Sunday School classes and is home to various clubs and school holiday activities.
