Hi my name is Debbie Andrei, I'm a volunteer with Hawkesbury Tracks (a division of National Parks and Wildlife).
Scheyville National Park will be conducting a Migrant History Walk of the old Scheyville Migrant Hostel on Sunday, 17 April 2005.
Many of the old migrant huts still stand and the (2) large "nissan huts" are currently being restored to their old former glory days.
Cost: TBA (usually under $20.00) comes with experienced guide and historian Chris Christofi.
If you are interested in attending or finding out more please contact me here.
