This camping and 4WD show is probably the biggest outside the major cities. It's run by the local 4WD clubs every two years, with about half of any profits going to charities and similar organisations.
This area has been in drought for years and every effort was made to minimise dust. With about 130 exhibitors and attendance expected to be 10000+, maybe double that, there were high expectations.
The dought had to break sometime!

In spite of 100+mm of rain, it was a great show.

Some of the poor campers came back to
camp after a busy morning and found that they were flooded out.
Great spirit, good people, and even the rain didn't totally spoil the weekend..Image Could Not Be Found

This area was worse on Sunday morning....
P.S. Record breaking attendance dispite the rain....
