 The Rigby connection with the Mountain Trails Club's famous- Miara Sanctuary of 85 acres in Heathcote Creek Valley was continuous throughout the 28 years of the lease. The fine rock pools, sandy beaches and surrounding sandstone bushland provided a splendid environment for club members and friends, where the joys of camping, swimming, discussion, music and good cheer balanced the working existence in the City. The Rigby family made good use of the place and the boys and other youngsters absorbed the theories, philosophy and ta1es of the experiences of trailers and others, old and young. The Rigby connection with the Mountain Trails Club's famous- Miara Sanctuary of 85 acres in Heathcote Creek Valley was continuous throughout the 28 years of the lease.
