Wannago Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 If you are referring to Rocks Riverside Park, it is in 17 Mile Rocks, which is just off the Centenary Highway. It is a huge park along side the river and has plenty of facilities - braais, children's activities like pools etc. It is free unless you want to book a specific part at a specific time. As far as I know, it closes at around six at night.ps. We live around the corner in Sinnamon Park and have been here for 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eva Posted April 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 So how was the get-together? Wish I had been there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nix Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 I too am keen to see how many people went. I unfortunaltey have bronchitis, and whilst I am up and about, I thought a day in the rain was not a good idea.... I think it cleared up though? Not sure about town..... How was it?

Brissy Bessies Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 It was pouring with rain in the morning so we decided to give it a miss (even though it cleared up beautifully in the afternoon but by then it was too late!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANDYL Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Welcome to Brisbane D&M. My family and I use to stay in Centurion too. Maybe a get together should be organised again. I am not sure who organises it though. If I may suggest there is a lovely dam with bbq's in the Petrie area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

457-ENS Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 A bit far north for us. I know there is a huge concentration of ex-Saffers west of the city from Kenmore through to Moggill. There's a lovely park called Rafting Ground Reserve near to Kenmore which is a great spot for picnics/BBQs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michelleweideman Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 a bit to far for us, maybe we can arrange another meet and greet at a more central or bayside location next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 I'm passing the buck If anyone has ideas for a get together for Brisbanites, please post recommendations. I don't think the venue and time as suggested is going to work out, due to lack of responses - perhaps I'm posting prematurely, but it's been very quiet to date - but please do post if you would like to meet in the suggested Kenmore area. Unfortunately Brisbane is such a huge place that many people are bound to have to travel to meet. Hope a get together does happen. Perhaps we need a celebrity to get things going.

Pippa Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 Dear Amity,Have you ever considered New Farm Park? It's very central (2km from the city) and there's lots of parking (at New Farm Park and the Powerhouse). It may be more convenient for everyone in Brisbane.Good luck.Pippa!
