The Landcare group now uses it for their planting days and for promoting their activities at community events. The gift from RCM is still recognised by our (old) branding on the trailer.
The intention at the time of the donation was that the club would join the Landcare group for planting days, as part of its hands on service activities. We have had two very successful planting days over the last two years (see happy volunteers below) and we have arranged for another opportunity this year.
It is proposed we join with the Landcare group and other volunteers on Saturday, 12 August. It is on a new site this year at 300 Watts Road, Ventnor. The day starts with morning tea at 9.30 am and we plant from 10 to 12.30, followed by lunch. Refreshments and lunch are provided by the Landcare group.
All that you need to bring are sturdy footwear, gloves, a water bottle and wet weather gear. As an alternative to planting, people can also help with assembling materials and preparing the lunch.
Please let me Roger Thornton know ASAP if you can attend. Both Roger and Kevin Love are available if you need any further information.
