We conducted our Annual General Meeting Monday 12 September. 2022 It was very well attended, welcoming our long-term members.

We also celebrated being Incorporated for TEN YEARS with a cake and speeches from our Chair and Board. A BIG CONGRATULATION to our community.

We were very lucky to be able to welcome several new members', including the Outsource Management group. Even though things have been very quiet , we are still continuing to grow as a not for profit community group. Our executive was unanimously re-elected.

Cape York Weeds and Feral Animals Incorporated has been appointed to the Queensland Reef Restoration and Adaptation Program.

 Monday 05/09/2022 and Tuesday (06/09/2022), we attended the Reef Restoration and Adaptation Program Advisory Panel meeting, held in Cairns.

• The meeting was particularly productive being introduced, and to start working with the other members of the panel.

• We got straight to work on a number of issues that affect our Great Barrier Reef, Far Northern Region. Concerning the Reef Restoration and Adaptation Plan.

• Our focus was becoming more inclusive in Indigenous and Non- Indigenous community consultation, (talking to the right people).

• We need to get as much of our cultural and scientific knowledge out to our people and hopefully everybody works together to protect and enhance our World Heritage area and Great Barrier Reef.

• As usual we were advocating for Cape York Peninsula to be included as a part of the solutions to our very real problems up in this part of out Great Barrier Reef.

  More news to come.
