FOLKC hopes that the Kororoit Creek Trail will open at the same time as the West Gate Tunnel Project is complete at the end of 2025. This will connect Hobsons Bay commuters and community to Werribee, Caroline Springs and the Melbourne CBD and the entire Metriopolitan Shared Trail Network - Progress in full report.

Great news. FOLKC has received a grant from Hobsons Bay City Council through its Make it Happen Grants program, to allow us to fix the watering trailer pump that has been giving trouble during last years watering program.
Work has commenced and it should be up and running in a week or two.
Thanks Council for your ongoing support.
It is with deep sadness and heavy heart that I announce the loss of our very dear friend, Simon.
To Fay, Stephen, Linda, and her family our sincere condolences.
