Clean Up the Creek

Grab your hats and sunscreen and join Tablelands Regional Council and Tableland Yidinji Aboriginal Corporation to clean up a stretch of Priors Creek.

‘We’ve partnered with Tableland Yidinji to host this Great Northern Clean-Up event and contribute to the restoration of a beautiful natural asset right in the centre of Atherton,’ said Councillor Con Spanos.

‘We’ll be meeting at the Rail Trail near the Atherton Men’s Shed at 8.50am on Saturday 26 October and working along the creek in both directions until about 10.30am.

‘Afterwards we’ll have a morning tea and you can chat to our staff about our Reef Guardian Council projects and how to get involved in other events.

‘We’ll provide clean-up kits that include gloves, pick-up utensils and bags — you just need to wear a hat, long pants and sleeves and sunscreen, and bring plenty of water.

‘Places are limited and participants will need to sign up at trc.qld.gov.au/gn-clean-up by Friday 18 October to secure their spot,’ said Councillor Spanos.
