Wednesday 27th June, 7.00pm-9.00pm,
Walk On Moreland Members Meeting, The Moreland Hotel, cnr Sydney Rd & Moreland Rd
Join us for our first evening group meeting. Be involved in inspiring each other with our ideas for a more walkable world, and to develop a vision for Walk On Moreland during the next year.

The evening will be part-workshop, part-meet&greet, part-infoshare, and its in a pub to also make it part-fun. Dinner is available from the bar.  We'll run the agenda more or less as follows.

1. Introduction Introduction to Walk On Moreland, including what got things started, where 'Walking In Freedom....' comes from, and the group's positioning in relation to Council to date.

2. The Members We'll invite everyone to introduce themselves, including any relevant experience, what drew you to the group, and what you're hoping to get from your involvement.

3. Street Decorations See examples of street art which can draw attention to safety issues and bring some play to otherwise dreary streets.

4. Council's Strategies Get a quick overview of Council's pedestrian strategy, budget, capital works program, and status of current planning work.

5. Vision Setting Let's throw around some ideas about what we want to achieve. How do we want to bring about cultural change? What's the best way to organise ourselves?

6. Actions Put your hand up to get involved in street decoration activities, community engagement, state
government lobbying, website development, or research.

When and Where Wednesday 20th June, 7.00pm for 7.15 start, we should be finished by 9.00pm
