Near perfect conditions saw people from surrounding areas turn out in droves to attend the 2015 Gidgy show and AHMAG would like to thank the Gidgegannup Agricultural Society for organizing such an outstanding event.

The AHMAG marquee was positioned adjacent to the old Toodyay Rd entrance and in front of the Hall and as usual we were inundated with people signing our petitions against open cut bauxite mining a mere 10 minutes from Gidgegannup.

We would like to thank all of you who stopped by to sign our petitions against the Felicitas and Fortuna mines, that if approved, will cover some 62 km2 from Wooroloo (Bailup Rd) to Wundowie and back through the heart of Morangup, all the way to the Avon river. (See this map)

It is also important to note that there is a pending exploration tenement over the Morangup timber reserve, part of the Avon valley national park and the Moondyne nature reserve.

Now with the prospect of these proposals becoming 100% owned by the peoples republic of China (PROC), opposition against these proposals is more important than ever.

Like us on Facebook and ask your family and friends to do the same. We must save our environment, our flora and fauna, the amenity of the communities that WILL be affected, our farmland and our water supplies.
