THANK YOU!
The rally Thursday 18th April in Sydney was a huge success thanks to
all of our collective efforts. We had great and inspiring talks from a
host of community leaders. Thank you for everything you did to help that
event and for your kind donations.
We'd love to see a couple of highlights from your photo collection from
the day to put on our FaceBook page. Please indicate if you wish for a
photo credit to go with this - we are happy to post them anonymously
also.

> Follow up with your local MP
Within our flyer that promoted the rally, we had asked people to please
contact their local MP to stand against the Premier by calling for the
legislation that allows recreational hunting in national parks to be
repealed.
If your local MP is an ALP or Greens Party member, touch base and see
how you can help to get the issue active in your electorate with their
help, or by helping them.
> On an entertaining note
If you haven't watched this video of a news item, it's worth it. Very
cleverly put together item on gun control.
