Friends of Merri Creek @Edgars Creek this Sunday

Hello, Good People,

The last of our planned activities for 2026 is scheduled this weekend, Sunday the 15th November. It is a maintenance activity:

Sunday 15 November 2026, 10.00am-12.00pm
Maintenance: Ronald St foot bridge area - weeding and general site maintenance activities.
Hosted by the FoMC @ Edgars Creek.
Meet near the FoMC @ Edgars Creek subgroup information board, near the western end of the Ronald Street foot bridge.

The work will likely be predominantly on the East side of the creek actually so best to come via Ronald Street. Please dress according to the weather, bring your own food and drink, gloves and don't forget to be sun smart.

I hope to "See you on the creek!"

Regards,

David.
