Annual General Meeting and Presentation

	Montrose Town Centre
	Annually in August-October
	Contact us for more details

Each year MEG holds an AGM which includes a presentation from an environmental expert followed by light refreshments. This is a great opportunity to connect with other members and learn more about your local environment. The event is usually held in August. In recent years the AGM has been held in the Montrose Town Centre, the costs of which are covered by Councillor Len Cox of the Yarra Ranges Council. Voluntary donations will be contributed to a relevant environmental organisation. The Spinulosa newsletter following each AGM includes an overview of the presentation as well as a summary of MEG's activities over the past year and the Treasurer’s report. In 2020 and 2021, the AGM was held online through Zoom due to COVID-19 restrictions, but AGMs have since returned to in-person.

Recent presentations have included:

• 2016: Zoologist Dr. Lindy Lumsden on bats
• 2017: Ecologist Dr. Graeme Lorimer on fire ecology
• 2018: Ecologist John Harris on Melbourne's nocturnal fauna
• 2019: Dr. Ella Kelly on the impact of cane toads on threatened quolls
• 2021: Internationally-recognised photographer and past MEG president Kim Wormald on wildlife and wellbeing
• 2022: Zoologist David De Angelis on conservation of reptiles and frogs in Melbourne's east, particularly the Growling grass frog and Glossy grass skink
• 2023: Wildlife rescuer Nalini Scarfe of Boobook Wildlife Shelter on caring for wildlife

The AGM and presentation will be announced in the preceding Spinulosa newsletter. For more details, contact us.
