Celebration of reserves victory

Residents who fought to save community reserves in Umina and Woy Woy from potential reclassification and sale by Central Coast Council will have the opportunity to celebrate victory on October 29.

Ms Sue Chidgey, founder of Save Central Coast Reserves, said she had organised a celebration picnic to be held on Saturday, October 29 at 12pm in Gosford at Lion's Park between the Gosford Olympic Pool and the Sailing Club.

Five out of the 25 reserves that had been listed for reclassification and potential sale by the former Gosford Council were on the Peninsula.

"Bring a picnic rug, some chairs, a picnic lunch and some sunblock," Ms Chidgey said.

She said the event would be relocated to the Gosford Sailing Club in the event of wet weather.
