Our History

The Tomakin Community Association Incorporated (TCA) was incorporated on 9th June 1998 as the amalgamation of two preceding Tomakin-based volunteer orgs:

• Tomakin Residents & Ratepayers Association (1989)
• Tomakin Community Trust (1994)

The TCA has existed on and off in various forms since at least 1890 and has always been a powerful force for improvements to Tomakin and its infrastructure, voicing residents’ concerns and organising events and fund raising for the benefit of locals and charities. One small example of this history is that on 6 March 1897, the Tomakin and Mosquito Bay Progress Association coordinated and sent a letter to the NSW Parliament asking for support in repealing the dog tax (a very contentious tax on rural residents using dogs for hunting and protection).
