Those that know this beautiful parkland know the decision to gift the parkland to the City of Moreland for the continued use of the community should be a simple one - as easy as a “walk in the park”.

To highlight the crisis facing the parkland, we’ve invited local and state politicians to attend an on-site information session on Sunday 7th September, 9:30am - 10:30am.  We’ll meet at the bridge near the basketball stadium on Outlook Rd, where the Merri and Edgars creeks join.

Come and join us to…

• See this wonderful parkland with your own eyes to fully appreciate how and why the local community has invested significant time to improve the quality of this public open space.
• Hear more about the working relationships the community (through the Friends of Edgars Creek) has built with relevant stakeholders, such as Greening Australia, Melbourne Water and the City of Moreland, to manage and improve this community asset.
• Experience the natural beauty of this parkland and discover how the loss of this community asset will contradict Melbourne 2030 Policy 5.7 –’to ensure major open space corridors are protected and enhanced’.

Remember - there’s no reason people should have to pay for a park twice!
