On a sunny Sunday at around 2pm and with a head count of over 140 the rally moved slowly down Shore Rd towards the drill site, much to the bemusement of some locals, car drivers and bus passengers. With representative groups ranging from local residents from REAF, Campaign Against Climate Change, the Green Party and the Co-Op to name but a few. The crowd converged as close to the drilling site as possible and heard speeches from various contributors including those locally affected.
The whole event was peaceful and friendly and police attending commented how well it all went. The whole Camp Frack experience was very positive for REAF who forged network opportunities to go forward with their campaign.
