Welcome

Welcome to the summer 2009 edition of the Manly Visitors Guide and congratulations to Scott Ryan and his staff on their 10 years of publication! The aim of the Manly Visitors Guide is to give the reader access to an abundance of information about the ever-growing range of services, activities and events under way in Manly. Manly has been my home all my life. It has been the most wonderful place to grow up in and then raise my family in, and I never tire of the fun and excitement it provides. If you are a visitor to Manly, I am sure you will just love it. And I am positive you will find the content of this very handy magazine informative, useful and plenty of fun, too!
