Myall Koala and Environment Group Membership

​Myall Koala Environment Group (MKEG) continues to be very active, with 150 members and growing, and as this is a holiday area, many of our members live in Sydney, or Newcastle, and holiday here regularly.
 
We meet quarterly in February, May (AGM), August and November.  At Easter we have a fund-raising stall in Hawks Nest, and in October we give away free koala food trees at the Myall River Festival to encourage residents to plant them on their properties.  We also have an offshoot group called Bitou Busters who meet monthly (March to October) to carry out bush regeneration.
