SUMMARY:Our Yarra River
DESCRIPTION:East Melbourne Historical Society Presents “Our Yarra River” \nPresenter: Ian Penrose \nIan is a former senior executive in the coal mining and gas industries\, but after 27 years he switched his focus to the natural environment. \nHe headed the Victorian Government’s program to restore the Snowy River with increased flows and bankside rehabilitation.

This role (of nine years) earned him the City of Melbourne’s 2010 “Melbourne Award for contribution to the environment” and (as co-winner) Boroondara’s 2015 “Citizen of the Year” award. \nIn his presentation Ian will share with us what he has learnt of the Yarra’s history\, and his thoughts about its future. \nWhen: Wednesday 19 Jun 2024 – 7:30pm \nLocation: East Melbourne Library\, 122 George Street\, East Melbourne \nEntry fee: Members free; non-members $5.00 \ntel: 0437 221 249\nemail: enquiries@emhs.org.au
