The landowner will be opening the property from Friday 17/07/2009 for the w/end. The object is to continue work on the amenities and to further track development that was started on Queens b/day w/end.

If any SJC members are interested please post up ASAP so that I can advise the owner who and how many are going.

Be advised Maggie and Bear will not be attending this trip.

One cold weekend at Bylong was enough for me sorry, but I can't wait to get out there come summertime.

As one of the owners nominated track builders I'm keen :)

Hopefully the current lot of dramas with the Jeep will be over then!

Hi Mani,

I'm only speaking from my point of view, and certainly don't represent the propertys owner. The property is about 4 hours drive and access is via a few other properties, which for me personally is a bit much for a day trip as you'd spend more time getting there as you would being there!

My understanding of this weekend from Bear's explaination at the meeting is that it's a working bee. The owner has been developing the main camping ground, putting in a shelter, toilet/shower block, etc, that was started on the long weekend. The weekend of the 18/19 will be continuing that work. It will be a great facility when it's finished!

If you're still keen to come out on the Sunday I'm sure the owner would be accommadating, but we don't want you to be disappointed at the lack of recreational wheeling that will be done that weekend.

We can guarantee though that when the time is right, you will have a blast there :)

D'oh,

The wrong weekend! If the trip was 24 - 26 July I'd be in. Unfortunately I will be down in Tumut helping my parents out. Sorry.

Yeh, we would have had a chance if it was the following weekend but I think it would be cold.

Hi
Thanks Bear and Sbadman i get the point. I will Definitely join the next trip there in the summer for the weekend. I work on most weekends so i will have to arrange the days off in advance.

Cheers

Our friendly land owner has requested that I provide him with a definite list of SJC members who are going up to assist with the working bee by Fri 10/07. He also needs to know what day you propose to go up, Fri 17/07 or Sat 18/07.

I'll be working in Botany on the Friday, so Saturday works best for me, especially since I figure the neighbours won't want vehicles coming through their properties at 10pm or later!

Once again thanks to Steve and Scott for visiting on weekend, your attendance and cooperation was much appreciated. The mixing of Jeep with Zone and Rare Breed Clubs was good to see, with the Camp shelter now extended and the old section reroofed, new tracks started, and flood debris and rotten timber being burnt it really is cleaning the place up.
The night drives are getting better, we just have to keep the pet wombat catching under our hats.... and again hope all appreciated the work Paul put into mowing campground. Looking forward to any visitors in October when it gets a bit warmer, where were those that complained about the heat in January.....beautiful white frosts...
PS Wolfie hope the truck is getting fixed and Dave missed your stunt driving skills.
