Coronavirus (COVID-19) update
Dear Friends of Parks Group Members
In light of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak National Parks and Wildlife Service South Australia (NPWSSA) is implementing precautionary measures to prioritise the health and safety of staff, volunteers and park visitors. This includes the cancellation of all campground host volunteer placements and volunteer ranger activities until further notice.
I am sure you would have seen the communique from the President Duncan MacKenzie on the 17 March, announcing the cancellation of activities such as the Governor’s reception in April, Friends of Parks AGM in May and the bi-monthly Board meetings.
The decision has now been made that Friends of Parks members cease all organised activities in our parks until further notice.
NPWSSA will continue to monitor the situation and provide you with additional information regarding volunteer activities as appropriate.
It is important to ensure you are relying on up-to-date and credible information.
