BMCC Community Consultation Meeting - Knapsack Reserve.
Soccer Clubhouse
Knapsack Park (cnr Levy & Barnett Sts Glenbrook)
This is the Community Consultation stage of the Knapsack DH project.
It will be held at the soccer clubhouse where council staff will present the details of the proposal and the REF such that any of the community attending can get relevent details. After this stage will be a walk of the new DH trail alignment so that any issues that may be raised by stakeholders can be seen an discussed on the ground.
All in all this should be really interesting and a good opportunity to explain areas of the project as well as see any problems that may be perceived in the community.

Meet at the top of the hill
Another day to do a bit of work on the top section of trail and to start on the spectator trail.

Pony Express trail builders Initiation.
Lithgow Pony Club, Sheedies Gully, off Hassans Walls rd.
Take the Dirt rd to the left opposite Rutherford lane and then right in through pony club
Ok this is for everyone who is keen to help us build the new DH trail off Hassans walls.
Some of the consent conditions are very strict so our main guys need to be inducted by Andrew Macleod from SEEEC in regards to the soil and sediment control measures that need to go into the construction and maintenance of the trail.
What to bring
Good footware, long pants recommended, food and water.
Not sure if we will be able to actually start digging but bring the standard trail tools just in case we get the go ahead.
