Wetland wrap-up
After a whirlwind weekend, it is great to stop and try to put at least some of it onto paper.
Click to download the Lakes Hub Bulletin #216
Looking through the feedback sheets and media articles, it appears that environmental and natural resource management issues are flavour of the month. I have provided a brief summary of the media coverage on page 3.
A community member (Karen Lane) has provided us with a review of the Environment Forum, held at Goolwa (thanks heaps, Karen!) and we are hoping to have some summaries of the presentations in future editions of the Bulletin. In the mean time, I have put a mosaic of photos at the base of this page, as a reminder of the fun we had.
There are a series of small grants open at present, for various Landcare, heritage and environmental purposes, which might be of use for various community groups and schools in the Lower Lakes and Coorong area.
Community education events include topics as diverse as farm management and cat control to how to run an event or build a bat box.
So, plenty of opportunities to get stuff happening, in our beautiful patch of this State.
