06.01.2022 Well done Liam! Liam Harper has completed 20 hours working at Mount Elephant for his Duke of Edinborough program. Liam worked with committee members Lesley Brown and Kim McCarthy to scope out and map and new walking track around the base of Mount Elephant. He planted trees, re-marked of our car park area and replaced old fences and gates. Great work!
