Bush Lemons do Mardi Gras Parade!

 40 Bush Lemons will be strutting their stuff at the Mardi Gras Parade to celebrate our 27 years.  Expect a sea of yellow, some great moves to our signature tune, our proud banner, sign carriers, and a large lemon (which we have all become very fond of) making a surprise appearance!  Many thanks to everyone who has made our entry possible, including those who have attending our working bees, dance leaders and choreographers Steph, Rachael and Kate, Olga for her design and making of the bracket that fixes the lemon, Ange for her design of the lemon, Bee and Bec for their ute, Sharron for making the gaiters, those Lemons who have practised and practised our routine, and those lemons who always put their hands up to help in many ways.  It will be great!

Floods and landslides

 It has been a terrible time for so many in the hawkesbury and northern rivers.  Although the mountains escaped any floods, the torrential rain has caused numerous landslides which has affected our roads, railway and tracks and has closed certain parts of the National Park. This may affect some of our scheduled walks.
