📍 Event details:

When: Saturday 31 January from 8:00am to 10:00am
Where: Marrambidya Wetlands 100 Narrung Street, Wagga Wagga

You can enter the Marrambidya Wetland via the Car park at 100 Narrung Street (where the Public Toilets are).

Please be mindful that the Marrambidya Wetlands site is preserved for local wildlife and is not designed in the same way as some of parks and gardens areas. Some points to be aware of include:

· The only toilets are at the car park; there are no toilet facilities within the wetland area itself.

· The only garbage bins are at the car park so while its fine for anyone to bring snacks or drinks, you must bring out all your litter with you.

For your own safety, everyone should dress appropriately with sturdy enclosed footwear and long pants, if possible. You should wear a hat and bring some screen.
