The APS invites everyone to a Summer Picnic in the lovely shady grass of Neilson Park, right behind Shark Beach, in beautiful Sydney Harbour National Park.
Neilson Park has great views, some sealed and unsealed walking tracks, and netted harbour swimming at Shark Beach.
We acknowledge the people of the Eora and Daruk nations, the traditional custodians on whose land we meet. We pay respect to their elders past, present, and emerging, and to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
