HELP NEEDED

Help needed by Parks Victoria - Bunyip

We have been contacted by FWDV for Parks Vic and received the following information from Andy Musgrove, Senior Ranger Parks Victoria Gembrook:

"Just thought I would give you an outline for the plan on the 30th June.

Firstly, I am looking forward to extending our great relationship with Four Wheel Drive Victoria and in advance we appreciate the support in Fire Recovery from the fires in March which swept through more than half of our Park.

We will have the opportunity to give you guys a briefing of the fire the day before which will set a lot of the context of what has happened during the fire and some of the recovery efforts to date.

Your involvement in the next stage is key to supporting community interest and ownership of the Bunyip State Park and supporting its regrowth into the future.

The aim for the activity for Sunday 30th is the removal of old fence lines that have historically been in place and have been exposed from the fire. It is opportunistic to get them out now before vegetation grows back.

When: Sunday 30th June at 9:00 am where we will have a briefing before commencing work.

Where: Cannibal Creek Horse Unloading Area on Tynong North Road (near Camp Road intersection)

What to bring: Gloves suitable for fencing wire, fencing plyers, safety glasses, suitable clothing and footwear for the day, lunch, drinks and snacks.

If you don’t have any of the items, no stress, I will bring plenty of spares.

Ideally we could use up to 20 people for the day to cover a few locations in the same area.

Please call me if you have any questions and I look forward to having a safe enjoyable day out there."
