The Batemans Bay Chamber of Commerce have installed a sign at the bottom of the Clyde that says 'Welcome Back Canberra'. A nod to the video created by JJs at the Marina after the bushfires when the highway was reopened, the Chamber said the message is to show Canberrans how much Batemans Bay and the Eurobodalla appreciate them coming to town and supporting local business. New President of the Batemans Bay Chamber of Commerce, David Maclachlan, said visitors from Canberra are extremely important to the Eurobodalla economy. "We've done this sign as a part of a mini campaign for visit Batemans Bay and it acknowledges the sentiment and the connection between Canberra and the coast," Mr Maclachlan said. "Lockdown has finished in Canberra, people are coming down on a Friday afternoon, what better place to be," he said. "People in Canberra love what we've got to offer down here and the natural attractions, they love whale watching, fishing, snorkeling with the seals, the cheese factory, Mogo, everything."
