Michelle Pettigrove, president of the Pambula Business Chamber said the project, initiated and managed by the chamber, includes the new sign, map and bench which now graces the front of the Pambula Post Office and replaces a deteriorated old sign which promoted a map of Merimbula and advertisements for obsolete Eden businesses.
"Designed by young Pambula local Christiane Partl who now works internationally as an interior architect, this venture is the perfect example of a town working together to make something great happen," Ms Pettigrove said.
"Seeing locals and visitors using this beautiful seat and sign is so rewarding. Now we can direct tourists to our amazing walks and beaches," Pambula shop owner Libby Tweedie said.
The sign was constructed by Pambula Beach resident and builder Chris Briggs with materials donated by North Eden Timber, Mitre 10, Peter Berenguer, Merimbula Engineering and POD Gardens - the vast majority of whom are Pambula Business Chamber members.
The map and lettering was created and installed by Wilsons Signs in Pambula.
"All of this was made possible thanks to the collaboration of the Pambula Rotary Club and Pambula Bendigo Bank - both amazing supporters of our local community," Ms Pettigrove said.
