Vale! Peter Barrack OAM
Peter is respectfully remembered by the Parks and Playgrounds Movement
for his outstanding contribution to the Newcastle and Hunter Community.
As Secretary of the Newcastle Trades Hall Council he was a true friend
of the Newcastle Community and Resident Groups. His intelligent leadership of
the Trades Hall Council provided a powerful Green Ban Umbrella to make sure
important Community Issues such as protection of Newcastle East and the
Newcastle Foreshore and Lake Macquarie Green Point were fairly heard by Local Government.
The parks Movement appreciated the advice of the Trades Hall Council in
many Park issues and always valued Peter’s support.
We were sad to hear of Peter’s death and we extend our heartfelt
condolences to his wife Di and family and grandchildren.
Yours Sincerely
Parks and Playgrounds Movement
