Friends of Morwell National Park
Over the last month the group has celebrated the 50th Anniversary of Morwell National Park. In 1967, Morwell National Park was officially proclaimed and opened and the group gathered at the Churchill Hotel to celebrate. It was great to see such a big turn out and everyone had an enjoyable night.
