Many Wamboin residents, me included, like to provide food and water for our local wild native birds. This piece strongly advises us to stop doing so in this era of H1N1 bird flu:

This seemingly harmless hobby could accelerate the spread of the deadly H5N1 strain.

Can you give a little of your time on Sunday 14 June to join other residents so as to care for the Wamboin Hall’s trees and plants?

Hi everyone.

We are improving the Wamboin Hall surrounds on Sunday the 14th of June from 9 am to about 11 am. We will be moving mulch, chain sawing and pruning with some whipper-snipping around the edge of the oval and under the trees. Please bring what you can of the following: a trailer, wheel barrow, mulching fork, rake, chain saw, pruning implements, mattock and whipper-snipper and of course, the appropriate safety gear. The plan is to improve visibility around the entrance, remove dead trees and weeds, clean up the rubbish around the bins and mulch under the large gum tree near the hall. We may do some new planting if we have time.

Morning tea will be provided at 11 am to finish the day on a social note and give you some reward for your labour!

Please let me know if you can come and what tools/machinery you will bring so I have an idea of numbers.

Thanks very much. – Vicki Still, 0404 013 898 or [email protected]
