About
Mountain Monthly is the Kinglake Ranges district community news magazine, published monthly with copies distributed to Kinglake, Kinglake Central, Kinglake West, Pheasant Creek, Flowerdale, Strath Creek, Yea, Glenburn, Castella, Toolangi, St Andrews, Hurstbridge and Whittlesea.Mountain Monthly was first published in 1981 with its aim to 'help fill the need for more effective communication within the area.' (MM March 1981). Mountain Monthly soon formed into a not-for-profit community owned co-operative, produced by a small team of part-time staff overseen by a volunteer Board of Directors, and has remained in this format ever since.
In December 2010 the Mountain Monthly acquired the Kinglake Ranges News website.
Mountain Monthly is one of Kinglake's success stories, and has continued to grow along with the communities in its district.. Our aim has, and always will be, to provide the Kinglake Ranges with a voice for the whole district and to foster a sense of identity and unity in our communities.
