From on High - Shared History

Come along to The Lookout Cambewarra and gaze across the extensive expanse of the Shoalhaven, with its 170 kilometres of coastline. Perched high on the summit of the Cambewarra mountain range, there is no shortage of sensational views from Coolangatta Mountain in the north, all the way down to Pigeon House Mountain in the south of the Shoalhaven.

Bringing two perspectives into play, listen as they talk about First Contact, and what happened around here before and where it leaves many today.

Hosts Barbara and James, new owners of this spectacular venue, which has been operating since 1905, are committed to finding a way forward that is Culturally respectful and helps the Shoalhaven become aware of the rich Millenia long history.

Drew Longbottom, Dharrawal and Wandra Wandian Man, influential and respected Knowledge Holder, Language Custodian, and Cultural Educator, will help you understand history from his peoples' perspective.

Lynne Allen, incredibly proactive President of the Shoalhaven Historical Society and The Shoalhaven Family History Society will talk about Colonial history and the forces that have shaped what is known as the Shoalhaven.
Bring your full attention to their presentations and submit your questions for the Q&A.
