Volunteers seek votes in campaign for the future Share
FINANCIAL backing, and votes of approval, are being sought to for a plan to gradually change the community-led guard at Point Nepean and its historic role in the defence of Australia.
Members of the Friends of Point Nepean National Park group are “not getting any younger” and want to make sure their conservation work continues.
The group has asked Parks Victoria for $13,769 for its project to encourage more people to become involved at Point Nepean.
Group member Mechelle Cheers says the national park with its quarantine station, walking tracks, forts and gun emplacements is a “glorious, special place”. Backing by Parks could depend on the number of votes the plan receives from the public.
