Elizabeth Calder, the donor, was here from 1965 to 1970 – Her husband, Chris Calder was an engineer for the Public Works Department (PWD) for the WA Government and worked in the Ord from January 1964 to 1970 – In 1968 he was the site engineer to get power and roads in place for construction to start on the Top Dam site. We first received a Cotton Festival program from Elizabeth in 2015, since received a 2nd archive with several other unique documents and most recently this 35mm slide collection in May 2018.

GAZ-12 ZIM Recent magazine series model by DeAgostini - 1:43 scale. It's an ambulance, and it seems the stretcher would be loaded through the boot, not all that practical!
I also have a black saloon version of this model, packaged for retail sale - all the text on the box is Russian, so I guess not for export sales.

Chevrolet Corvette C2 Sting Ray 1963, from the DeAgostini American Cars series, no. 1 as published in the UK, although this seems to have been issue 4 in France and Italy.
Quite often these types of publication appear in a different order in different markets.

Philadelphia Water gathered with partners and supporters of the City of Philadelphia’s Green City, Clean Waters program at the Fairmount Water Works on Thursday, June 16 2016 to celebrate the five year anniversary of the historic green stormwater infrastructure plan’s adoption.
Joined by U.S. EPA Regional Administrator Shawn Garwin, Pa. DEP Regional Director Cosmo Servidio and City of Philadelphia Managing Director Michael DiBeradinis, Philadelphia Water Commissioner Debra A. McCarty announced that City had surpassed five year regulatory targets, resulting in a 1.5 billion gallon reduction in stormwater runoff and combined sewer overflows during a typical year of rainfall.
This historic achievement was made possible through the public and private creation of 837.7 Greened Acres in Philadelphia, and many of the partners and organizations contributed were on hand to celebrate at the event, dubbed “5 Down.”
Under the 2011 agreement with the Environmental Protection Agency and the Pa. Dept. of Environmental Protection (EPA), the City was required to create 744 Greened Acres, representing a 600 million gallon per-year reduction in runoff and overflows, by June 2016. Overall, the City must create nearly 10,000 Greened Acres over at 25-year period and reduce typical annual overflows by about 8 billion gallons.
Each Greened Acre uses green tools such rain gardens and stormwater tree planters to manage at least 27,158 gallons of runoff from hard surfaces like streets and parking lots every time an inch of rain falls in the city. In addition to filtering pollutants out of stormwater, green infrastructure sites keep excess water out of Philadelphia’s overburdened sewer system, where overflows can lead to sewage spilling into local waterways.
The event also featured a special beer created by Saint Benjamin Brewery in Kensington to highlight efforts to protect the source water they depend on for brewing and a musical performance by Philadelphia native Sterlen Barr. Mural Arts and the Public Workshop helped to support the five year milestone celebration. Members of the Philadelphia Water Public Affairs Unit created a backdrop showing photos from green infrastructure sites and Green City, Clean Waters events held since 2011.

GAZ 24 Volga Ambulance - 1:43 scale Russian model vehicle from the DeAgostini series.
A very similar model was produced in the USSR, although that had opening doors etc. However, there are so many similarities in the markings that I assume it served as inspiration for this one. The same goes for the Aeroflot 'Follow Me' Volga estate where the DeAgostini version seems to be a copy of the one produced in the USSR.
