About Friends Of Kings Park

The Friends of Kings Park was established in 2006 by a group of residents who were interested in developing the park as a valuable resource.

The group's purpose is to support and help further develop Kings Park as a centre for environmental education, events, recreation and to protect the environmental amenity of the park and its precincts.

The group is fully supported by the manager and staff of the park, who are honorary members of the group. They provide the group with advice, support and professional expertise.

Everyone using the park is welcome to join us and assist in making the park a better resource for everyone.

Calling for new members

Friends of Kings Park is always on the look out for new volunteers who could contribute their time to making Kings Park a valuable resource for the local community. In addition to regular meetings about park issues, we are also actively involved in other activities such as fund raising, organizing activities for the children in local schools, through to keep-fit events for both adults and children such as our highly successful Summer Cycling sessions held annually in the park.

Our members come from all walks of life and offer their expertise in making Friends Of Kings Park a success. We also look forward to hearing more from younger members in the community who want to make a difference in improving Kings Park and to offer valuable advice and insight into organizing activities for their peers.

As a member, you get to attend our meetings and have your say in decisions being made about the future of Kings Park. If you feel strongly about the future of Kings Park and believe you can make a difference or contribution, please get in touch and join us. We have a lot of exciting new projects lined up for 2010 such as the Sensory Garden project and we can use your help in making it a success.
