In recognition of NAIDOC Week, the Society has organised a coach trip to the Jinibara Aboriginal Centre in the grounds of Woodfordia (the site of the Woodford Folk Festival).  Broadly, the traditional country of the Jinibara People is centred around Kilcoy and Woodford.  Jinibara Country was recognised at Woodfordia by the National Native Title Tribunal in 2012.  The Woodford Folk Festival has nurtured ties with the Jinibara people and hosts the Jinibara People Aboriginal Corporation.

This trip travels from Enoggera via Petrie, Dayboro and Mt Mee to Woodfordia with a stop for BYO morning tea.  The cost includes the coach, and a cultural talk plus bush tucker lunch at the Jinibara Cultural Centre.

There may be a walk of several hundred metres along a track.

Cost $70 for members, $75 for non-members
