BUSHWALKING
Once again we dodged the rain and eighteen of us had a splendid walk around the Curry's Hill area where the regrowth from last year's disastrous fires is very encouraging to see.
The walk on Friday, February 19 is in the Hepburn Springs and Beehive Gully area. Contact us on 5348 3569 or at http://tinyurl.com/m7dlxb
This week's Bushwalking tip: Avoid bushwalking on days of total fire ban. The emergency services have enough to worry about without you adding to the problem.
