Our BRLG events provide valuable learning experiences, an opportunity to share information and a pleasant social event. The Executive is keen to hear members suggestions for speakers and special guests.
We often have the support of the local Catchment Management associations, the local Councils (Geelong, Moorabool and Wyndham), Melbourne Water and more. Particular thank you to the Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority who financially support the production of our newsletters and Melbourne Water - Group Support Grant which has supported our website.
Newsletters also provide information about funding and projects. Our first newsletter was produced in August 2006
