There are now many history bush walks to explore on the new LPA website.

Discover the beauty of Lugarno this school holidays by exploring its rich history and native flora and fauna. 🌺🦜

Although this historic walk in Lugarno starts at Evatt Park, it is best enjoyed if you start at the entry of the Rainforest Track on the North-Western edge at Blackbutt Avenue (car parking spots are available here).

Today 22nd March is World Water Day. An annual event that was started in 1993 by the United Nations .

It is intended to remind us how important water is to life and how we should conserve and protect our water resources. There are over 2 billion people in the world who dont have readily available access to clean drinking water.

The LPA is a member of Streamwatch a NSW govt initiative for community groups to monitor water quality in local creeks ,rivers and dams.
Every month or so we test the water in Webbs Dam in Evatt Park and report any adverse results to the council.

Happy to say that results this morning were all good and pretty much in line with recent tests. Samples taken near white marker.

We test:-
Dissolved Oxygen
Conductivity
Phosphate
pH
Nitrate
Turbidity

No doubt all this recent rain has helped !!

A huge thank you to the dozen local residents who helped clean up Lugarno this morning on Clean up Australia day.

We tackled Murdock Crescent reserve on foot and the waters around seafood restaurant on a couple of kayaks.
