A message from club member Michael Stevens.

If you are like me you will have bought ski clothing over the years and now have a cupboard full of stuff that you never wear. A couple of years ago I cleaned out the family ski gear cupboard and took it to the Wayside Chapel in Kings Cross in Sydney. The Wayside is a day refuge for homeless people who sleep rough in the open. There they can get a meal, have a shower and get clean clothes. Ski clothing is welcome because it keeps them warm. Parkas, skivvies, jumpers, sox, beanies, gloves, track pants and overpants soon find a new owner. Some lucky person got a down jacket or a sleeping bag. Each year I seem to find something else to give them.

Children's clothing that is outgrown would be better going to Vinnies where it can be bought at lower cost as Wayside does not need children's clothing.

Now I ask you to join me and look through your ski gear and donate any surplus items that are clean and serviceable to the Wayside or similar charities that look after the homeless. Similar organisations will be found in other cities and some of them may have a need for children’s clothes. April / May is a good time to do this when the cold weather arrives and keep in mind that the homeless need summer clothes in the summer.

The mountain pygmy possum, a tiny nocturnal marsupial, was once known only from Ice Age fossils. Today, we know where its 2,000 remaining individuals are holding on.
