Dear Member Groups, 

We are having our first Member
Forum for the year. The topic is 
'Recreational use in natural areas'
and will be held on 24 March, 5:30 
for 6pm start at Havelock House,
85 Northbourne Ave, Turner. Stephen 
Alegria (PCL) will be discussing
Mountain Bike Tracks particularly on 
Bruce Ridge and Rod Griffiths
will be sharing the concerns of National 
Parks Association. 

This is your chance to join in discussions on this important
issue. 

Drinks and nibbles will be provided. Entry is by gold
coin donation, 
member groups free! 

Also, please see
below a reminder about our Trivia Night. 

Kind regards,

2011 Trivia Night 
When: Friday 1 April, 2011,
6.30pm for 7pm start 
Where: Majura Hall, 2 Rosevear St, Dickson 
Tickets: $20 each (if purchased before 19 March $25 each after 19 
March). Tables of 8 

It's on again! Come and join us for a
fun night of trivia, fun and 
mayhem and walk away feeling great that
you've helped a wonderful cause. 

Last year we raised just over
$4,000 to hire a part-time campaigner to 
fight for the Molonglo
Valley. This year we are trying to raise funds 
for our new
Biodiversity Mapping Project. 
This project will assist in mapping
the distribution of endangered 
species and ecological communities in
the ACT Region. Unfortunately, 
no such maps currently exist. Once
completed the project will provide 
a valuable resource for the
community in terms of the maps produced 
and data which will be made
available through a new facility at the 
Conservation Council Office
in Civic. 

How Member Groups can get involved 
Book a
table of 8 for your members 
Sponsor a round of questions for $50 
What you get for your sponsorship: 
- Free advertising for your
group on the answer sheets, "as well as 
during our slideshow
presentation, and announcement by the MC during 
the round 
-
Questions and Round topics have yet to be confirmed, so here is 
your
chance to promote your member group. 

NOTE: Member Groups can
book more than one table for the evening. 

The night will
include 10 rounds of questions (MOSTLY 
ENVIRONMENTAL!) , a silent
auction, raffle prizes as well as lots of 
fun games. Prizes will be
awarded for the winning team. Light 
refreshments (coffee, tea,
cakes) will be provided but we advise you 
to also bring your own
drinks and nibblies.

groups as well as members of 
the public. Places are limited, so BOOK
