The Limestone Coast Landscape Board is inviting people to come and celebrate spending time with nature and culture at its regional event ‘A Day at the Lake” during the school holidays at Lake McIntyre.


The Limestone Coast Landscape Board in collaboration with Burrandies Aboriginal Corporation and Wattle Range Council has issued the invitation to the community to come along to a free fun-filled family day out.


Activities will include First Nations Elder led walks around the lake showcasing seasonal changes and cultural knowledge, basket weaving, storytelling, art and craft activities, bird identification workshops and nature scavenger hunts.


Limestone Coast Landscape Board Education Coordinator Mel Holtz is encouraging all families to attend this day out in nature.


“There are so many wonderful activities on offer at this event. Walking the Lake McIntyre trail on a seasonal walk guided by First Nations Elders is a special cultural experience,” she said.


Wattle Range Council community development officer Kat Searcy said she looks forward to the event.


“Wattle Range Council is excited for this collaborative event and hopes locals and visitors to the region can explore our unique natural environment,” she said.


“Lake McIntyre is a beautiful part of the


Limestone Coast, we look forward to this fun-filled day.


“Bring a picnic lunch, purchase food and drink from the event or enjoy the free sausage sizzle! Bring your family and friends and spend the Day at the Lake.”


This project is supported by the Foundation for Rural Regional Renewal (FRRR), through funding from the Australian


Government’s Future Drought Fund.


The Day at the Lake event is being held on Friday, October 11 at Lake McIntyre, Millicent from 10.30am to 2.30pm.
