Park Ambassador curious and movie premiere

by Shane Sody

If you've ever wanted to introduce people to your Adelaide Park Lands, we've got a great opportunity for you.

Our program of Guided Walks will be expanding in 2024, and we need a few extra pairs of hands to help share the Park Lands love.

It's one of the easiest but rewarding volunteer roles you can fill: being the eyes, ears and voice of one part of your Adelaide Park Lands.

Want to know more? Come along to an introductory session on Monday 6 November 2024 at the City Council’s “Minor Works Building” 22 Stamford Court, Adelaide, from 7pm.

Places are limited, so please register your attendance (free) on Humanitix so we don't exceed the room capacity.

Meet the existing team of Park Ambassadors (see below) and find out how easy it is to speak up for just one or two of the 30-odd Parks within your Adelaide Park Lands.

This meeting of Park Ambassadors will also include the first screening of the new APA short documentary "World's Only". Here's the trailer:

This video has been months in the making and features stunning imagery of your Park Lands, animations, TV News reports, historical imagery, comparisons with other world Parks, and interviews with people around the world about the significance of your Park Lands.   

Monday 6 November will be the very first opportunity to see it, four days before its public release on Friday 10 November. 

But the main purpose of the evening is for Park Ambassadors (and potential new Park Ambassadors) to meet each other, swap tips, and help us plan next year’s schedule of Guided Walks.

If you have a voice, and you can walk through a Park, then you have what it takes! It's that easy.

But you probably have questions. If so, this session is an opportunity to hear from those who've been doing it for years, including the founder of the Guided Walks program, APA President Shane Sody.

Places are limited, so please register your attendance (free) on Humanitix so we don't exceed the room capacity.

We’d love to welcome you onto the team!
