The trail is varied and rather scenic as we closely hug our way around the river. Our walk commences at Greensborough Railway Station with a short stroll to meet the river. The walk along the Plenty River Trail offers a combination of urban parkland, natural bushland, and farmland to enjoy along the way.  After passing through Willinda Park, Yallambie Park and Banyule Flats reserve, we say goodbye to the Plenty River and say hello to the Yarra River. Shortly afterward, we will stop for a well-deserved break and lunch at Heidelberg Park. After lunch, we then continue our exploration of the Yarra River through Yarra Flats Park, through the upmarket areas of Eaglemont, to arrive at Wilsons Reserve.

During the lockdown periods, quite a number of Nomads and friends have been regularly playing 500 cards online using the Trickster Cards program. This works surprisingly well, and with video and sound enabled has really enabled people to stay in touch. A few others have indicated they would like to join in, but don't understand the rules of the game. So this Friday night we are holding a 500 cards tutorial session via Zoom. You will learn the rules of the 500 cards game, the different types of bidding that can be made, and how many points are won (or lost) depending on the number of tricks you win. While you watch on, your tutor will play a round or two, showing you his cards and explaining his strategies and decision making processes. After that, you'll be put into a team (of 4 players) to play a game or two yourself using Trickster Cards. To do that you'll leave the Zoom session, but you'll be able to rejoin the Zoom session at any time if you want to ask your tutor any particular questions. We'll also try to place at least one experienced player into each team, so they can answer any questions and help you make decisions as you play.
