World celebrations for Wetlands
Residents of Hobsons Bay are invited to join us in celebrating World Wetlands Day 2021 at Truganina Explosives Reserve on Saturday 6 February, to shine light on the vital role our wetlands play for our people and biome.
Included in the free festivities at this COVIDSafe event are: a talk from Deakin Uni’s Blue Carbon Lab; guided walks around Hobsons Bay’s wetlands; a sausage sizzle; a guitar performance by Ted Smith; storytime with local author, Claire Saxby; and plenty of hands-on activities for children and people of all ages! Attendees can also participate in a raffle to win a fabulous and original piece of artwork from our very own local artist, Rob Mancini, or a breakfast for two at Birdcage Cafe, Altona. All funds raised will support the Hobsons Bay Wetlands Centre in its aim to connect people with nature.
