The Tailem Bend Progress Association is a volunteer-driven community organisation dedicated to supporting, promoting, and celebrating the township of Tailem Bend, South Australia. Our purpose is simple but important: to bring people together, encourage positive growth, and work on projects that enhance the lifestyle, wellbeing, and opportunities of our community.

We are proud to play an active role in fostering community spirit, showcasing local talent and businesses, and making Tailem Bend a welcoming and vibrant place to live, work, and visit. Everything we do is powered by volunteers who share a common passion for keeping Tailem Bend thriving now and into the future.

Our key projects and activities include:

• Tailem Bend Christmas Parade – Our much-loved, family-friendly parade that lights up the streets with floats, entertainment, and festive cheer.
• Tailem Topics – Tailem Bend’s very own community magazine, produced monthly and distributed to over 2,000 households and businesses, keeping locals informed and connected.
• Christmas Parade CABARET - A lively night of music, dancing, entertainment, and prizes, helping raise funds for our Christmas celebrations while bringing the community together.
• Tailem Bend Beautification Crew A dedicated team of volunteers working hard to keep our town beautiful with projects that improve streetscapes, parks, and community spaces.
