We hold an Open Day in autumn each year to showcase our progress with the Almanda Project, and this year it will be held on Sunday 6th May. Come along and help us celebrate the fourth year of our project at the Open Day to be held between 10am and 3pm at the Almanda Mine site on Dorset Vale Road, Cherry Gardens.

Visitors can take a self-guided walk along a section of Almanda Creek and around Almanda Swamp, to see firsthand some of the work being undertaken by the Friends group to help restore this, and other creek systems, within the park.

There will be a display with information about the park and the Friends group activities, and Almanda Project reports, local bird brochures and park maps will be available for sale. Bird banding will take place along the nearby Mineshaft Track, for anyone interested is seeing what is involved in this regular Friends’ activity.
