Hi all

Cross Border Working Group

The ACT Chief Minister and a number of others pointed us in the direction of an ACT and NSW joint committee looking into this area. This committee kindly agreed to hear us and accordingly we went in and gave them a presentation supporting our proposal for a national park encompassing the Ginninderra Falls and the surrounding area of the Murrumbidgee river.

Hi all

Australia Day BBQ at the Belconnen Arts Centre

Thanks to the Belconnen Arts Centre who have invited us to run a BBQ at their Australia Day event. All proceeds from the BBQ will go to the Ginninderra Falls Association so this gives us a chance to meet and greet people, explain the proposal to create the Murrumbidgee - Ginninderra Gorges National Park and make some money on the side.

Hi All

Please see the latest Project Status update prepared by Doug Finlayson. The two key points are the recent Riverview Groups’ Workshop and our next step which is to ensure that a regional cross-border working group is established.

Hi All

The NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) has issued a preliminary assessment on the potential acquisition of three parcels of land in the vicinity of the Murrumbidgee River corridor and Ginninderra Creek confluence. A summary of this report is now on our website - Summary of property assessment conducted by National Parks and Wildlife Service at Ginninderra Falls  - and I have included a copy of the text below.

Hi All

Please see below a notice from the Canberra Times 31 October 2013. This development has significant implications for the proposed Murrumbidgee - Ginninderra Gorges National Park. This is not necessarily adverse to our aspirations but we have to continue to keep in touch.

Christmas Gathering

Everybody is welcome to our festive get-together for 2013.

We are going to start off at the wonderful Strathnairn Arts Centre from 2pm on 1 December 2013 then at about 3:30pm we will go a little further up the road to the Shepherds Lookout.

From both places we will see a lovely view of the Murrumbidgee Gorge crossing the NSW/ACT border.
