Hello @FirstName

Thank you for registering for the upcoming @EventName. We appreciate your interest and support. This information will be emailed to you.

This will be a great opportunity at this scenic spot for the next stage in helping repair the environmental damage from invasive weeds. The Friends of Tomaree NP and community supporters have been removing bitou and other highly invasive weeds over the last 12 months. The improvement and vistas are immediately apparent. Now we’re ready to enhance the margins with some native coastal plants.

What better way to meet up with other caring people outdoors in this fantastic environment.

Please arrive before 8am for sign-in, ready for 8.10am start. There is no need to print your ticket.

Location: Kingsley Beach carpark, Boat Harbour. Google map code 6474+33 Boat Harbour, NSW (Apple maps are not accurate). Please email if you need a map image.
