CHARCOALITION MEDIA RELEASE

3 September, 2002

BIGGEST RALLY EVER, TO MARK CHARCOAL ANNIVERSARY!

The Charcoalition was one year old in August, and in that time has become a powerful force for the democratic voice of the communities for a Charcoal Free South Coast in the Eurobodalla's Nature Coast. To mark this anniversary and celebrate the building of extraordinary community unity, Charcoalition is hosting the Biggest rally ever to be seen in Batemans Bay.

Spokesperson for Charcoalition, Chris Kowal said, "The Rally will celebrate the strength of community democracy and send a reminder to the NSW Government that a Charcoal Factory does not fit in the middle of the Nature Coast."

The Rally will be held on Saturday, September 21 in Bateman's Bay . It will start from Loins Park which is on the South Western side of the Batemans Bay bridge, and people are asked to arrive at 11.00am for a 12 noon start.

The Rally will finish at Mackay Park where a number of speakers will address the crowd and bring the gathering up to date on the latest developments and actions..

More details will be available in the paper over the coming weeks.
