Please join renowned landscape designer, Michael McCoy, on this day to plant a truck load of plants just days before opening. Yes a truck load! We need hands in gloves with shovels and plenty of spirit to plant, mulch and water. Please join locals and a contingent of volunteers from ANZ Bank in Melbourne on this really satisfying planting day. |
| Email: Yes I 'll be there tomorrow (Thurs) for a few hours planting with friends |

| Final clean-up this Sunday 25th - Please help |
|

OK so let's be honest. We've made more "final" calls than Dame Nellie Melba. We know it. You know it. But the reality is that this park IS opening next Tuesday with fanfare. Everyone wants it to look fabulous on the day. We are so close and we need your help for a final clean-up before the opening. Can you help for a few hours from 9.30am? |
| Email: No worries - I'll be there on Sunday for the final clean up |
