This float was created by members of Friends of the Park, a group formed in 1987 against government proposals to turn the railway and reservation into a grand boulevard to service the proposed Sandridge City 'bayside' development. Members worked for months to make the decorations, added to a trailer. During the festival procession sausages were BBQ'd on the trailer and handed out to the crowd. On arrival at Murphy's Reserve all floats were put out of sight, and few saw the results of their efforts.One of 16 colour photos of Friends of the Park float for the February 1988 Port Melbourne Festival: Nellie Thackruh and Robert Frost with his BBQ on float, on Graham Street overpasscelebrations fetes and exhibitions, public action campaigns, friends of the park, nellie thackruh, robert frost, port melbourne festival -
