Dear {usertag:name}

Energy Group Meeting this Sunday

The Glideways in Ferny Grove meeting on Saturday 6 November was delightful. Martin from Geckoes Wildlife Presentations did a great job giving ‘hands-on’ education to both children and adults about the wildlife that lives around The Grove. His extensive menagerie included snakes lizards birds and marsupials. Naturally the star of the show was a cute Squirrel Glider. Everyone wanted to have a touch!
