WA Exploroz get together

Hi All,

Following my post #15950 I received a lot of feedback both on and off list and so with Michelle's help, we've come up with the following date and venue - this will be a great chance to meet, mingle and put a few faces to names so we hope to see you all there!

10am Sunday 19th Sept at Mawson Park, Hillary's for a BBQ lunch. Michelle tells me that Mawson Park is a popular family and group picnic destination. Apart from having heaps and heaps of space, there is a central pond with residents ducks, geese and even black swans (and seagulls). There are a couple of covered picnic shelters with tables and bench seating and free? gas bbqs and bins. There is a MASSIVE kids playground to suit all ages from 1-15yrs plus a bike track around the playground which has a white sand base. There is also a green grass football sized oval used for sport on Saturdays, a public toilet block that is ok, and the whole park is shaded by massive Tuart trees. The whole park is surrounded by a lowrise copper-log fence with grass parking surrounding the park on the verge off the street, which is Mawson Crescent. So all in all it sounds like the perfect spot for our gathering.

From some of the responses I've had, I can see that some of you are keen to have a weekend campout or similar. Perhaps once we've met and had a chance to get to know each other a bit, we could organise an actual bush outing.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

:o) Melissa

Hey great, good luck with your GT if i had the time off i'd come myself, lets see i'd need 3 weeks, 2 weeks to get there and back 2 days there and 5 days to recover no worries, or maybe next time, in the future there should be an all states Get-Together wouldn't that be good.

Count me in for the all states get together. May as well have it in the middle. Start Alice Springs and camp locally from there.
Did I mention I live in Alice, maybe I 'm biassed. ;0)
