" After almost four decades in the heart of Australia in
Oodnadatta, Lynnie Plate is
moving on.
Contracts have been exchanged for the sale of the
Pink Roadhouse, and in early September new owners will move to
Oodnadatta to begin another chapter in the
outback.
You are invited by Lynnie, Alice, Tilly and Ruby to help them farewell the region on the 12-14th July and take part in three important events:
1. Friday 12th July 4pm OFFICIAL NAMING OF THE
OODNADATTA AIRSTRIP IN HONOUR OF ADAM PLATE at
Oodnadatta airport. The SA Government has announced it will host this ceremony in recognition of Adam Plate’s contribution to the local community.
2. Friday 12th July 530-10pm PLATE FAREWELL PARTY at
Pink Roadhouse with speeches, music, food and fun and you get to meet the new owners. All welcome. Food and alcohol available.
3. Saturday 13th July

FURTHER INFO – please read:
Due to the large number of people expected to attend, we ask that all people planning to come try to be as self sufficient as possible. While you will be able to buy food and alcohol, it's unlikely there will be any accommodation available. We ask that you prepare to
camp if you do attend."

Thank you! Very nice, naming the air strip after Adam.
Sounds like it will be quite a party! I hope somebody from EO attends and shares a report. :)
