Merrifield has wonderful open outdoor spaces. But living in a city that’s famous for having four seasons in one day means that sometimes the weather stops us doing the activities we love.

Things like dance classes, school holiday programs and martial arts (to name a few) aren’t much fun outdoors on wet winter days and roasting summer afternoons!

So local Merrifield resident Carolyn Rodger applied to ‘Pick My Project’ for a grant to build an indoor recreational space at Merrifield.

What is ‘Pick My Project’?

Pick My Project is a Victorian first community grants initiative, with $30 million available to fund local projects that will make our community an even better place to live. If successful, we can build an indoor space at Merrifield that will meet all our community’s recreational needs, whatever the weather.

We need your support!

Grants will be decided by popular vote and competition will be fierce. To get our recreational space, we need the greatest number of votes possible, so follow the steps below and show your support for your community.
