Sir Kev & Darkie
I am having a couple of issues obtaining some essential items for the
St George Gathering, and was wonder if people who are attending are able to assist.
Items I require are:
1. Name Tags for attendees to wear ( approximately 200 will be needed),
2. Raffle tickets (I have about 6 books of 100 but we may need more).
As discussed over a number of other threads, there are activities that can be done in conjunction with each other.
e.g. The Farm tour and Lunch at
Nindigully Pub, Breakfast in
Bollon and then tour of the Rosehill Aviary on return trip, Town Tour and visit to Winery etc.
I have arranged for the
Visitor Information Centre in
St George to make up 80 info packs for the
St George area, these will contain basic maps and attractions for the
St George Area.
I would also like to get approximate arrival days for those attending. I know there are a few arriving on the Friday etc, of those arriving on the Friday I may get you to be group leaders for some of the pre arranged stuff I have organised. So over the weekend I can take you for a tour of the areas to be covered. eg the return trip from
Nindigully to
St George via a back road.
Alternate route home from
Bollon via a Steam Engine that was used as a motor for a
water pump etc.
Cheers Kev

Kev I wont arrive until Sunday but will take the
Bollon B/fast trip if you like, just give me the location of the engine and aviary etc and let me loose.
I did a convoy of 16-17 cars just last week and I am match fit. LOL
Cheers Colin.
PS how many raffle books do you want?????

A few more books would be good. I am sure if needed I can pick more up in
St George.
I will take you for a tour of where the Steam engine is before the day of the trip so you know where it is LOL I may even get a GPS reading of it before hand LOL
The Aviary isn't hard to find as Mark G found it LMAO
Cheers Kev

If Mark can find it anyone can.
I looked at the aviary and found it and yes it's on the
Bollon Hway, Easy.
Er Indoors said that she can bring 10+ books of tickets if you want them.
Done then, I will do that trip for you if you want.
Cheers Colin.

Sounds good, I think 10 books should be ample.
I have secured the white board for people to indicate which
places they intend to visit on what days as
well.
I have also forgotten to mention I have quite a few items for the kids and kids at heart to hand out as
well LOL
Cheers Kev

Morning Kev
As you are aware Julie and I intend to be at
St George on Friday afternoon so will be at the Dam that evening. . I have a few dvd's to toss into kids bags - how to fish stuff and I'm sure I can find a heap of Qld fishing rules books here somewhere (gotta keep them fisho's honest) and a heap of safety whistles from NSW Maritime (won't Mum's and Dad's love me.) I'll see what else I can scrounge up here and bring it along too.
Cheers

Friday morning would be good, or I will be road training 3 trailers out to the
camp site. The Trak Shak, The firewood trailer and a Rubbish trailer LOL.
You have my number so call me when you are close to
St George. If you want to roll in on Thursday night, you could set up at an alternate spot for the night as I can't get access till Friday morning at this stage :(
Cheers Kev

That is not what Dave B has told me hehehehehehe
He mentioned that he has a car trailer in tow incase you break down again LOL
I hope everyone is practicing for the 4WD Skills comp that Dave is going to run. Plenty of trailer reversing from what I can gather
