Community Boat Wash Facility: Feedback Drop-In Event
2024-09-25 17:00 - 18:30 | Claris Conference Centre
Your Involvement in Protecting our Ocean:
Local beaches and water are not just beautiful to look at – they’re home to a thriving marine ecosystem that is under threat with the spread of invasive marine species. The threats to our local ecosystems such as Fanworms and Caulerpa Algae latch themselves onto the bottom of boat hulls, but understanding and controlling these threats is the first step to protecting our ocean. Your involvement is crucial, so give your feedback on the plans for a community boat wash facility on the island.
Community Feedback Survey:
Give your feedback on the plans for a community boat wash facility for the island by completing the feedback survey and joining us for the drop-in event!

There are many ways to take part, you can snorkel, be a support person in a vessel on the surface or join the beach crew who will look after the sausage sizzle and be there for the discussions before and after the dive. Please check in again closer to the date as weather conditions may impact dates of these surveys. Schooner Bay will be one day and Medlands the other, depending on wind etc. If you would like to join the team of snorkelers please get in touch: medlandsecovision@gmail.com
