Defend and Extend Public Housing BBQ Picnic and Networking Meeting

Coburg Lake, City of Moreland Melbourne. Just south of the old Pentridge Jail, on Merri Creek. Corner of Gaffney & Champ Streets, 5 minutes walk east down Gaffney St from Sydney Rd. A great location for an open air event, there is shelter if it rains and it is near water if it is hot which is more likely. Kids playground and BBQs, public toilets, natural beauty in the city. Obviously we may have to share the BBQ. Once one enters the park one walks straight down towards the river and lake. It should be OK for people with wheelchairs and other mobility problems, there is a path alongside the lake/creek. We will have a banner or the like down near the footbridge. A good chance for the people who know each other face to face to meet those who we so far only know through a computer terminal; and do some serious plotting!
